Abstract
A self-inflating cuff and a method of using the self-inflating cuff are provided. The self-inflating cuff includes a first compartment and a second compartment formed therein and containing respective substances. The first and second compartments are configured to rupture in response to a force applied to the exterior surface of the self-inflating cuff, thereby combining the respective substances to undergo a chemical reaction and creating a counterforce on the interior surface of the self-inflating cuff that expands the self-inflating cuff. The self-inflating cuff is further configured to expand such that a first opening at a first end of the self-inflating cuff and a second opening at a second end opposite the first end of the self-inflating cuff expand sufficiently to receive a container through the first opening and a tube of the container through the second opening.
