Sea-Band will benefit persons suffering with nausea and vomiting associated with:

• Motion
• Pregnancy
• Chemotherapy
• Post Operative
• Other related nausea EG: Too much food or drink

It does not cover blows, improper use, or other issues that are not attributable to a manufacturer defects.

Yes, tests conducted on post-operative patients in hospitals have shown that Sea-Band has a direct effect on the cost of care by reducing:

• The length of recovery - patients are more likely to recover quickly if they are not experiencing nausea
• Amount of anti-emetic drugs administered
• PACU nursing care
• Unplanned admissions related to nausea and vomiting following out-patient procedures

When Sea-Bands are placed on a patient prior to surgery, many do not suffer with nausea or vomiting. Patients who still need anti-emetic drugs may be subjected to fewer drugs and lower doses.

It has been cited that Sea-Bands are “As effective as ordinary anti-emetics; completely devoid of side effects”.

A plastic stud is attached to the inside of the wristband which exerts pressure and stimulates the P6 (or Nei-Kuan) acupressure point.

It has been proven that pressure on this point relieves nausea and vomiting.

Nausea is typically reduced within 5 minutes after Sea-Bands are applied.

Sea-Bands may be applied as a preventative measure before the onset of nausea (such as before surgery to reduce the risk of nausea and vomiting associated with anaesthesia)

Sea-Bands may also be applied after the onset of nausea

Sea-Band is drug free and have no side effects.

Yes, Sea-Band can be used with any other drugs.

There are no contra-indications.

Yes, Sea-Bands have been used successfully on children as young as two years of age. However, they must fit snugly around the wrist to work.

Roseann Ferrara-Love, MSN, RN, CPAN, CAPA, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, pointed out in her lecture at the ASPN conference (1999) that the pressure is not great enough from the wristbands to effect the flow of an IV.

She did suggest, however, that the band be placed on a patient’s wrist - prior to an IV - only to ensure that the IV was not placed too close to the P6 point where the band must be positioned to work effectively.

No, Sea-Band is Latex-free.
