Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) Gen 7

38.00 CHF inkl. MwSt. und zzgl. Versandkosten

Das Combat Application Tourniquet® oder einfach CAT ist ein Ein-Hand-Abbindesystem zur Stauung oder kurzzeitigen Unterbrechung des Blutflusses in Notsituationen, insbesondere in der taktischen Verwundetenversorgung. Durch einen individuell verstellbaren Gurt kann das Tourniquet an allen Extremitäten angelegt werden. Das Windesystem (Band mit Knebel) spannt ein frei bewegbares inneres Band, um den Zufluss von arteriellem Blut in die Extremität zu unterbinden. Zur Fixierung des Knebels unter einem Klemmhaken braucht es nur einen Handgriff.  Während des Transports sorgt der Klettverschluss des CAT für zusätzliche Sicherheit.

 

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.
