Fire / Rescue Tourniquet
Fire fighters squads now use the C-A-T ® tourniquet to administer life saving first aide for serious accident injuries.
Fire fighters are often among the first to arrive at the fire or rescue scene. They find victims with life threatening injuries, and reach for the bright orange C-A-T® tourniquet to stop the bleeding. Within seconds the blood flow is occluded, and the patient is stabilized as they wait for additional medical help. It all happens within seconds. The C-A-T’s® ease of single-handed use, lightweight (59 grams) construction and bright orange color make it easy to identify and implement.
