Tourniquets & Pouches

Clinical Rationale & Comparison Table

Clinical Rationale — Tourniquets

  • Uncontrolled extremity bleeding is the #1 preventable cause of trauma death.
  • Early prehospital windlass tourniquet use significantly improves survival with low complication rates.
  • Data from the Joint Trauma System (JTS) and CoTCCC confirm superiority of rapid, high-limb placement for arterial bleeding.

Training rationale: Every operator should demonstrate rapid one-handed and two-handed application under 30 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between a commercial and improvised tourniquet?

Commercial tourniquets are designed for effective arterial occlusion and have been field-tested. Improvised versions often fail or cause more harm. We only carry professional-grade tools like the combat application tourniquet—proven, safe, and fast.

How should I store my tourniquet for fastest access?

Use a dedicated MOLLE tourniquet holder or belt-mounted pouch for external carry. Avoid storing inside bags or zippered pouches. Our holders are made for quick deployment with either hand under stress.

How many tourniquets should I carry?

Two is the standard minimum—one for yourself, one for others. Serious trauma often requires multiple applications. Our pouches allow you to stage more than one tourniquet kit without bulk.
