One of the most critical pieces of any trauma kit is the tourniquet. The Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) is arguably the best on the market. It's a small and lightweight one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial blood flow in an extremity. The C-A-T® uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system.
The Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) (Patent Pending) is a small and lightweight one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial blood flow in an extremity. The C-A-T® uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass uses a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to an extremity. The windlass is then locked in place; this requires only one hand, with the Windlass Clip™. The C-A-T® also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass Strap™ for further securing of the windlass during patient transport

It can happen in seconds, a life threatening blood loss injury must be stopped or death may be imminent. The police responder helps to save yet another life with the aide of the military approved C-A-T® tourniquet. Training is simple, the product is light weight (59 grams) and easy to spot in the supply bag.
