7 x Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) - CE Certificated- For Military Use.

Description

For military use. The Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T) is a true one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial and venous blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant haemorrhage. Combat Application Tourniquets are one of the simplest ways to stem blood flow from a limb in an emergency, and are now on widespread issue most troops on active deployments. The C-A-T uses a windlass system with a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once tightened and bleeding has stopped, the windlass is locked in place. A velcro strap is then applied for further securing of the windlass during casualty evacuation.
