A tourniquet is a band that is  often used in emergency situations to stop/reduce blood flow to an open wound  to prevent against excessive blood loss.  A tourniquet (shown in the figure below) is often applied to a limb during a traumatic injury such as to an arm or leg to occlude/block blood flow above the site of injury for a short amount of time (often described as a brief period of ischemia).  If the tourniquet is removed from the limb and blood flow is restored through the vessels, ____________ would occur.
