Hemostatic CAT Tourniquet

The working principle of a hemostatic CAT tourniquet is based on physical compression to stop bleeding. When encountering bleeding, wrap the tourniquet around the appropriate position near the heart of the wound, and use a rotating spinning device to generate uniform and continuous pressure on the limb, thereby compressing blood vessels, blocking blood flow, and achieving the purpose of hemostasis.

Proper use of hemostatic CAT tourniquets is crucial.

*To choose a suitable location, usually 5-10 centimeters above the wound, avoiding joints.

*Wrap the tourniquet evenly around the limbs, ensuring that the fastening buckle is securely fastened.

*Slowly rotate the spinning device and observe the bleeding situation while rotating until the bleeding stops.

*Be sure to record the time of using the tourniquet so that subsequent rescue personnel can understand the situation.

Compared with traditional hemostatic methods, spinning tourniquets have significant advantages. It is easy and fast to operate, even non professionals can quickly master the usage method, greatly saving valuable emergency time. The hemostatic effect is stable and reliable, and can effectively control various types of bleeding. Moreover, the adjustable spinning device can precisely control the pressure, avoiding limb damage caused by excessive pressure.

However, there are also some precautions when using a spinning tourniquet.

The pressure should be moderate. Excessive pressure may damage nerves and muscles, while insufficient pressure may not effectively stop bleeding. The usage time should not be too long. Professional medical assistance should be sought as soon as possible, and follow-up treatment should be carried out under the guidance of professional emergency personnel.
