The technique involves inserting a small<unk>  directly into the patient's<unk>  and inflating it. The<unk>  blocks the artery and temporarily stops the blood flow giving doctors time to operate. It maintains blood circulation in the brain and heart. However, the parts of the body below the<unk>  are cut off from the normal blood flow and this may result in short- or longer-term problems. This technique has been successfully used in operations to control non-compressible torso hemorrhages in adults; but this has not been studied for children.
