Description
 
Noted as the best prehospital tourniquet in the February 2008 supplement of The Journal of Trauma, this tourniquet serves as the official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army - so you know it has to be the best. Proven to be 100% effective in occluding blood flow in both upper & lower extremities in events of traumatic wounds with significant hemorrhage by the U.S. Army�s Institute of Surgical Research. New single routing buckle for faster application, decreased blood loss, effective slack removal, fewer windlass turns, and simplified training with single protocol application standards. Includes reinforced windlass, stabilization plate, windlass clip and writeable windlass security strap.
The C-A-T� utilizes a durable windlass system with a patented free-moving internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is locked into place. A hook and loop windlass retention strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The C-A-T��s unique dual securing system avoids the use of screws and clips which can become difficult to operate under survival stress or where fine motor skills are compromised.
The patented Combat Application Tourniquet� (C-A-T�) featuring the proprietary red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band has been the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since 2005. The innovations in the C-A-T� are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.
Featuring North America Recue's signature Red Tip Technology� elliptical tab providing added visual clues during application.
