The C-A-T® is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by the U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research.

Tests proved that the C-A-T® completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.

The C-A-T® utilizes a durable windlass system with a 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 Velcro® strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation.

Features:

• Awarded one of the "Top 10 Greatest Inventions" by the United States Army

• Small and cost effective

• Performs in all weather conditions

• Proven to be 100% effective in occluding blood flow

• True, one-handed operation
