ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an air cushion unit (4) for use in conjunction with a compression device for stopping bleeding from puncture wounds. The air cushion unit (4) comprises a base plate (5), an inflatable air cushion (6), which is attached to the base plate (5), and an internal telescopic guide (7), the first end of which is attached to the base plate (5) and the second end of which is attached to the top of the air cushion (6). Throughout the pressurizing of the inflatable air cushion (6), the length of the telescopic guide (7) corresponds to the degree of expansion of the air cushion (6), thereby providing an internal support for the air cushion unit (4), which eliminates undesired, irregular movements of the air cushion (6).
