Disclosed are methods and devices for obtaining patent hemostasis of the radial artery by compressing the uninstrumented ulnar artery to increase radial artery flow. The device comprises a band having an inflatable bladder for applying blunt pressure to the ulnar artery. The method comprises applying a pressure to the homolateral ulnar artery and applying a pressure to the radial artery at the access site to obtain hemostasis at the access site. The method further comprises administering an anticoagulant to a patient at a dose ranging from about 20 units per kg of body weight to about 30 units per kg of body weight.

Provide is a wrist type blood pressure meter cuff not oppressing the non-selected artery so as to prevent its pulse waves from mixing into pulse waves of the selected artery necessary for measurement, in a cuff used in a blood pressure meter for measuring blood pressures by selecting and oppressing one artery of the wrist. A wrist type blood pressure meter cuff comprises a fluid bag 41 for oppressing a selected artery of either radial artery or ulnar artery located at the wrist by feeding fluid inside to inflate, and a fixing member 30 for fixing the fluid bag at the wrist. By forming a gap between the fixing member and the wrist, the oppressing pressure directly applied from the fixing member 30 to the wrist at which the non-selected artery is located is set smaller than the oppressing pressure directly applied from the fixing member 30 to other position of the wrist when oppressing the wrist by inflating the fluid bag. This gap is produced by a swollen part 33 provided in the fixing member.

A living body information measuring apparatus can suppress the bulge of tendons due to the bending of a wrist or fingers, and has good contact intimacy with arteries, making it possible to make accurate measurements of living body information. A cuff is formed of: a compression fluid bag which is provided for detecting a pulse wave signal, and which can be expanded and contracted by being supplied with a fluid; and two auxiliary fluid bags which are provided on an outer side of the compression fluid bag, and which can be expanded and contracted by being supplied with the fluid. The auxiliary fluid bags have a two-layer structure, and are connected to the compression fluid bag via opening portions, while the auxiliary fluid bags are respectively divided from each other. The compression fluid bag compresses the tendons, the radial artery and the ulnar artery, while the auxiliary fluid bag and the auxiliary fluid bag compress the radial artery and the ulnar artery, respectively. Thus, the bulge of the tendons due to the bending of the wrist and fingers can be suppressed, so that the contact intimacy of the compression fluid bag and the auxiliary fluid bags with the wrist is not hindered.

One bracelet embodiment provides therapeutic blood irradiation at a first wrist region using a first module, and body temperature regulation / irradiation at a second wrist region using a second module. A connector couples one end of the modules together, while an attachment band releasably couples the second ends together, for attachment to the wrist. The first module includes first and second distributed pluralities of lights respectively emitting 850 and 660 nm wavelengths, and a third plurality emitting 630 nm, 532 nm, and 450 nm wavelengths, positioned in a row substantially parallel to the arm of the user. The second module includes first and second rows of lights on first and second sides of a cooling unit, each emitting 405 nm wavelengths, with the two rows positioned for penetration to the radial and ulnar arteries. The bracelet includes a microprocessor, LED screen, and firmware for displaying a GUI permitting treatment protocol selections.
