Arterial tourniquets have been recognised as a means of controlling arterial bleeding for hundreds of years, with initial applications being in the control of blood loss during surgical amputations. The earliest documented military application of the device dates back to the American Civil War in 1862 with the recommendation that every combat soldier should be issued a tourniquet, and trained appropriately. Since that time arterial tourniquet use for control of life-threatening bleeding has been extensively debated in the literature, with pre-Vietnam opinion of the tourniquets of the day being largely negative.

With advances in tourniquet technology, as well as the development of battlefield medicine in the past 15 years in Iraq & Afghanistan, tourniquets are now recognised as a safe and effective method in controlling life-threatening haemorrhage.

This Book will cover the theory required for Police and other First Responders to confidently and effectively apply an arterial tourniquet to a life-threatening limb bleed.

Please note - this product is a reference guide to using Arterial Tourniquets and does not include a tourniquet itself. Tacmed recommends and prefers the SOF-T Tourniquet which can be purchased here.

Originally designed for the US Armed Forces to meet the challenges of successful IV access in stressful environments with challenging patients, the BOA Constricting IV Band by North American Rescue has become a critical component of successful IV cannulation in the tactical medical field.

For improved central venous access every time, the BOA ?uses a rolling action to transfuse venous blood to the distal veins while still allowing arterial flow. For maximum effect, the BOA is placed as high up on the extremity as allowable. This technique decreases time on task for treating combat casualties, civilian trauma patients, or medical patients with poor vascular access (for example, diabetic wound care).

TacMed Australia is now stocking the COMBAT APPLICATION TOURNIQUET (C.A.T)- G7. It has all the great features of the Gen 6 C.A.T but has added features including the NEW Single Routing Buckle for faster application, decreased blood loss, effective slack removal, fewer windlass turns, and simplified training with single protocol application standards

COMBAT APPLICATION TOURNIQUET (CAT) G7

The CAT (Combat Application Tourniquet) is a small and lightweight arterial tourniquet that completely occludes blood flow in an extremity. Used for the treatment of life-threatening bleeding, the C.A.T Tourniquet 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 Tourniquet also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass Strap for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.

Note - Blue colour option is traditionally used as a training version.

Chest seal application is a critical bleeding control intervention. The TrueClot^® Chest Seal Application Trainer is a task trainer designed to teach this critical skill in both table top/classroom and wearable/scenario settings.

As a table top trainer, the simulated entry and exit wounds will bleed and bubble mimicking tension pneumothorax indications.  A real chest seal is applied to the trainer so students can practice with the seal they use in the field while learning proper placement techniques.  The wound trainer actively bleeds and simulates both exhalation and inhalation demonstrating the sealing and venting action of various chest seal products.   TrueClot’s proprietary design and materials allow chest seals to be removed and reused multiple times to reduce training costs.

When students are ready for scenario training, the same table top wounds can be adhered to and worn on the included Velcro MOLLE vest.  Students are taught to manage a moving patient while applying chest seals using skills learned during table top training.  The unique design allows instructors to place entry and exit wounds in various locations on the torso.  The Chest Seal Application Trainer includes a reservoir for simulated blood, tubing and a bulb pump for active bleeding simulation during wearable, scenario training.  The reservoir/pump system is stored inside the vest and tubing is secured inside the MOLLE loop to prevent tangles and increase realism.

Chest Seal Application Trainer features:

• Durable simulated wounds and Velcro MOLLE vest
• Easy to clean and air dry
• Apply and reuse real chest seals for realistic training
• Simulated bubbling, breathing and chest seal venting/sealing
• Wearable entry and exit wounds with active bleeding for scenarios

The Chest Seal Application Trainer comes with entry and exit wound models, a squeeze bottle for table top training, Velcro MOLLE vest, simulated blood reservoir, bulb pump and tubing with quick connectors for wearable/scenario training.
