It (the thigh) was elevated to "esmarking", tourniquet inflated - pd


Posted: Sep 29, 2011

1) Surgery site was discussed, "cleared upon a mark." 2) It (the thigh) was elevated to "esmarking", tourniquet inflated.

Esmarch - Cathy

For the second one, I think he is talking about using an Esmarch bandage for exsanguination. The first one might be marking the surgical site with a marker. Not sure of exact wording; you could try listening again with these things in mind.
