As combatants and field professionals, we experienced the need for a functional, practical, and easy-to-use tourniquet. We translated this need into the LST tourniquet, which enables treatment of both standard limb injuries and injuries in junctional areas

Introducing the LST - Life Saving tourniquet

The LST Tourniquet is a functional, practical and simple to use tourniquet. Unlike traditional tourniquets, the LST can stop bleeding from junctional areas in addition to stopping limb bleeding.

For injuries to the arms and legs, the LST functions like a standard tourniquet. However, in cases of injuries to the shoulder or upper thigh—or even complete amputations—the LST applies pressure to the main artery leading to the limb using a dedicated pressure pin, effectively stopping the bleeding.

Effective for limb injuries

The LST is effective and quick to apply to the limb. It can also be applied with one hand.

Effective in Junctional areas

LST has unique characteristics that enable it to treat injuries that require pressure points.

Practical in extreme conditions

The LST is extremely durable. Its simplicity allows for operation even under extreme pressure conditions and during combat.

Compact and lightweight

The LST is lightweight and compact. It fits well in many vests and pouches, and it is able to be open quickly.

How to Use the LST Tourniquet?

Using the LST tourniquet is simple and effective:

– For limb injuries:
Place the LST above the injury site, just like a standard tourniquet. Tighten the strap and rotate the rad until the bleeding stops. Then, secure the rad and strap.

– For junctional injuries:
Position the LST so that the pressure pin applies force on the main artery leading to the limb. Tighten the strap firmly and, if needed, use the rad to create additional pressure.

The strap length is 155 cm (about 61 inches), plenty of material to be able to go around those with significant tactical midsection girth.

TWM developed the LST, which provides on-site solutions for both bleeding from junctional areas and limb bleeding. Additionally, TWM has successfully passed the Israeli Standards Institute's accreditation exams and received approval to develop and manufacture medical products (ISO13485). The LST is protected by both Israeli and international patents and has received approval from the Israeli Ministry of Health (AMAR).
