Abstract
The patient and surgical site were identified and marked. The patient underwent anesthesia per the anesthesia team. The patient was positioned supine on the operative table. The upper extremity was scrubbed and draped in the standard sterile fashion. A tourniquet was applied to the proximal end of the arm. Using an Esmarch bandage, the upper extremity was fully exsanguinated and the tourniquet was elevated to 250 mmHg.
