Hemostatic device

A hemostatic device to be applied to a hand of a patient to stop bleeding at a puncture site on the patient's hand, the hemostatic device comprising:

• a pressing member configured to compress the puncture site on the hand of the patient;
• a cover member configured to cover the puncture site on the patient's hand and positioned in overlying relation to the pressing member;
• the cover member including a main body, a first band body configured to be disposed between fingers of the patient's hand, a second band body and a third band body, the second and third band bodies being configured to be wrapped around the hand of the patient so that fasteners provided on the second and third band bodies engage one another to secure the second and third band bodies to each other in a wrapped state around the patient's hand;
• the main body having an outer periphery and including a support member, a first layer and a second layer, the first layer having an outer periphery, the support member also having an outer periphery, the support member being located between the first and second layers and overlying the pressing member, the support member being made of a material different from the first and second layers, the support member being harder than the pressing member, the support member including one side and an oppositely facing other side;
• the first band body extending from the main body in a first direction, the second band body extending from the main body in a second direction different from the first direction, and the third band body extending from the main body in a third direction different from both the first direction and the second direction;
• the second band body having a center line and an end portion terminating at a free end, the third band body having a center line and an end portion terminating at a free end, the center line of the second band body and the center line of the third band body intersecting one another in the support member as seen in a plan view of the hemostatic device;
• the outer periphery of the main body being located outwardly of the outer periphery of the first layer and the outer periphery of the support member in the plan view;
• the end portion of the second band body being fixed to the outer periphery of the main body so that the free end of the second band body faces the one side of the support member in the plan view, a distance between the free end of the second band body and the one side of the support member in the plan view decreasing in a direction away from the first band body;
• and
• the end portion of the third band body being fixed to the outer periphery of the main body so that the free end of the third band body faces the other side of the support member in the plan view, a distance between the free end of the third band body and the other side of the support member in the plan view decreasing in a direction away from the first band body.

• the main body including a support member overlapping the pressing member and made of a material harder than the pressing member, the main body also including sheet material overlying the support member, the sheet material having an outer periphery;
• the first band body having a center line and an end, the second band body having a center line and an end, the third band body having a center line and an end, the center line of the first band body intersecting the support member as seen in a plan view of the hemostatic device, the center line of the second band body and the center line of the third band body intersecting one another in the support member as seen in the plan view of the hemostatic device;
• the end of the first band body being fixed to the outer periphery of the sheet material of the main body so that the end of the first band body and a first portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material are positioned in overlying relation to each other, the end of the second band body being fixed to the outer periphery of the sheet material of the main body so that the end of the second band body and a second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material are positioned in overlying relation to each other, the end of the third band body being fixed to the outer periphery of the sheet material of the main body so that the end of the third band body and a third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material are positioned in overlying relation to each other;
• the second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material and the third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material being spaced outwardly away from an outer periphery of the support member as seen in the plan view;
• and
• i) the end of the second band body and the end of the third band body having a concavely curved end surface facing toward the support member;
• or ii) the end of the second band body that is positioned in overlying relation to the second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material having a width less than a width of the second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material, and the end of the third band body that is positioned in overlying relation to the third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material having a width less than a width of the third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material;
• or iii) the end of the second band body that is positioned in overlying relation to the second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material having a width greater than a width of the second portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material, and the end of the third band body that is positioned in overlying relation to the third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material having a width greater than a width of the third portion of the outer periphery of the sheet material;
• or iv) the end of the second band body being fused to the outer periphery of the sheet material of the main body at a plurality of second band body fused portions that are spaced apart from one another so that an unfused portion exists between immediately adjacent second band body fused portions, and the end of the third band body being fused to the outer periphery of the sheet material of the main body at a plurality of third band body fused portions that are spaced apart from one another so that an unfused portion exists between immediately adjacent third band body fused portions.
