Medical tourniquets to stop bleeding

A medical tourniquet is a mandatory element of a tactical first aid kit

Haemorrhagic tourniquet, is an instrument for temporarily stopping bleeding from the main vessels by circularly squeezing the limb and compressing its tissues. This thing is an indispensable part of every tactical first aid kit, especially a soldier on the front lines. Its use in combat conditions is of great importance and life-saving value.

The main reasons why a tourniquet is a necessary element of a front-line fighter's tactical first aid kit:

• bleeding control. Military injuries can be very serious and lead to severe blood loss. The tourniquet allows you to quickly and effectively stop bleeding from the main vessels. This is especially important in situations where medical care may be limited or unavailable;
• saving life. When a soldier suffers a serious bleeding wound, every second counts. Timely application of a tourniquet prevents death due to haemorrhage. In addition, it allows valuable time to transport the injured person to a medical facility where further care can be provided;
• mobility and survival. Conditions on the front lines can be extremely dangerous and unpredictable. The use of a tourniquet allows the bleeding to stop, which allows the soldier to maintain consciousness, and therefore the ability to help himself or get to shelter.
