North American Rescue · IV Access

BOA I.V. Constricting Band

A single-use venous constriction band that rolls venous blood distally to engorge the peripheral veins while arterial inflow continues — the manufacturer’s answer to the flat latex band that cannot raise a target in a hypovolemic, sclerotic or edematous limb. Quick-Click connector on, two-finger Quick-Release off. Two sizes: Standard to 18 in., XL to 27 in.

Rolling compressionQuick-Click / Quick-ReleaseStandard 7.5–18 in. · XL 10–27 in.Single-use

The XL is not a bigger version of the same band — it is a different part number with a red stripe, and the stripe exists so nobody grabs the wrong one out of the drawer.

What's Included

One band per package, in the size you select. The two sizes are different part numbers with different lengths and different markings; nothing else in the package changes. Tap a size.

The rolling-compression mechanism, and the claim that it engorges peripheral veins while arterial inflow continues, are stated by North American Rescue. This is a venous constriction band for vascular access. It is not a limb tourniquet and must never be used as one.

▾Who Carries It

Combat medics and flight medics establishing IV access on hypovolemic casualties during CASEVAC · EMS and critical-care transport working difficult sticks in the back of a moving unit · Hospital, clinic and phlebotomy teams reaching for the XL on edematous or large-circumference limbs where a standard band will not close · Kit builders stocking a venous-access band as an upgrade over a flat latex tourniquet.

Scope of practice. This band is a vascular-access adjunct for providers already trained and credentialed to place an IV catheter — nurses, paramedics, combat medics, phlebotomists. Where to place it, how long it may stay on, and whether cannulation is indicated at all are clinical decisions governed by your training, your medical direction and your protocol. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for use.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What makes the BOA different from a standard latex IV tourniquet?

The BOA uses a patented rolling compression mechanism (US Patents 5,304,202 and 5,607,448) that rolls venous blood distally into the extremity while allowing arterial inflow to continue. A standard flat latex band applies uniform circular pressure, which can impede both arterial and venous flow and does not selectively engorge peripheral veins. The BOA's mechanism is designed specifically to raise a venous target in difficult-access patients.

Is the BOA single-use?

Yes. The BOA I.V. Constricting Band is single-use and disposable. It is vacuum-sealed for sterility and shelf stability. Do not reuse between patients.

What training is required to use the BOA?

The BOA is designed for use by trained IV-access providers: nurses, paramedics, combat medics, and phlebotomists. The Quick-Click and Quick-Release mechanisms are intuitive, but providers should be trained in IV catheter insertion to use the device effectively.

Is there an NSN for the BOA?

The BOA was originally developed for Armed Forces use and has been available through DLA. Contact MED-TAC International for current NSN lookup for the BOA XL (30-0071) and Standard (30-0046).

When should I use the BOA XL instead of the Standard BOA?

Use the BOA XL (red stripe, 10–27 inches) for patients with arm circumferences above 18 inches, edematous extremities, or when accessing upper-arm veins above the bicep where a longer band is required. The red stripe visually differentiates the XL from the Standard in a stock environment.
