Tumescent infusion for liposuction: a practical method and pressure delivery system.
To facilitate tumescent liposuction, a pressure infusion technique is necessary. We have devised a new technique for anesthetic solution infusion-a pressure infusion bag along with an automatic low-pressure tourniquet pump-that can generate sustained and significant volume infusion. This system is readily available, requires a minimal capital outlay, and is economically advantageous to our patients.
