TMT™ Tourniquet
Extremity hemorrhage is a major cause of preventable death globally and the number -one cause of preventable death on the battlefield. 1 Death from blood loss can occur in as little as five minutes from a severe extremity injury. Tourniquets are a proven device to stop severe, life-threatening bleeding. Developed by the US military and recommended by the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC), the TMT is used by militaries, medical professionals, and public safety agencies worldwide.
NO INTERNAL BAND: Eases slack removal and allows for rapid resetting.
2’’ WIDE: Achieves occlusion at lower pressures.
UV-PROTECTIVE ADDITIVE TO POLYMERS: Durable enough to be stored outside or packaging.
TWO LOCKING MECHANISMS: Double-routed speed buckle and hook and loop backed strap prevents slippage and pressure loss.
QUICK-DISCONNECT BUCKLE: Prevents misrouting of tail and allows for trapped-limb application.
ENHANCED TORSION BAR SECURING: Audible signature “click” identifies the torsion bar is secure.
MULTIFUNCTION: Undeniable advantage when combined with the TQ-RAM† for point pressure over wound packing and additionally provides proximal hemorrhage control.
