Product Description:

The CAT tourniquet is a commonly used emergency tool, typically made of flexible materials such as rubber or nylon. Its main purpose is to control severe bleeding in emergency situations. The tourniquet is usually tightly applied above the injured or bleeding area, exerting pressure on the blood vessels to stop or reduce bleeding. This pressure can halt blood flow, providing the injured individual with sufficient time to await medical assistance or receive other emergency treatments. However, it is important to apply the CAT tourniquet with moderate tension to avoid causing additional harm to the limb. Therefore, proper training and guidance should be received before using it. Tourniquets play a crucial role in areas such as emergency medicine and military healthcare, as they can save lives in critical situations.
