CAT Tourniquet Option:
Noted as the best prehospital tourniquet in the February 2008 supplement of
The Journal of Trauma
The patented 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 CAT completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a
traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.
The Gen 7 CAT 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 CAT’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 CAT
are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.
