It is suggested that the mechanical compression caused by the blood pressure cuff facilitated penetration of ethylene oxide residues into tissues and contributed to the degree of tissue damage.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessGeneral & internal medicineDermatologySurgeryProduct(s)Ethylene oxideChemical burnsBlood pressure cuffGasBlood pressure determinationBurns, chemicalCase reportDisinfectantsEthylene oxideFollow-up studiesHumanRisk assessmentSkinArticle0000899848000132-s2.0-003382961176076326811024613Critical care medicineDermatologySurgeryEthylene Oxide; 2-Hydroxyethylvaline; Vinyl CopolymersChlorphenoxamineEthylene oxideArticleBlisterBlood pressure measurementCase reportChemical burnCuffDrug penetrationErythemaHumanInstrument sterilizationTissue injury
