NAR Combat Application Tourniquet CAT

The Combat Application Tourniquet™ (C-A-T™) is a small and lightweight one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial blood flow in an extremity. The C-A-T™ uses an Omni-Tape™ band to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass system uses a free moving internal band to provide true circumferential pressure to an extremity. The windlass is then locked in place; this requires only one hand, with the Windlass Clip. The C-A-T™ also has a Velcro™ Windlass Strap for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.
