The C-A-TTM is Delivered in Its One-Handed Configuration
•Free-running end of the Self-Adhering Band passed through the buckle forming a loop for the arm to pass through. This is the recommended carrying configuration.
Combat Application TourniquetTM
(Pat. Pending)
The Combat Application TourniquetTM (C-A-TTM) (Patent Pending) is a small and lightweight one-handed tourniquet that completely occludes arterial blood flow in an extremity. The C-A-TTM uses a Self-Adhering Band and a Friction Adaptor Buckle to fit a wide range of extremities combined with a one-handed windlass system. The windlass 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 ClipTM. The C-A-TTM also has a Hook-and-Loop Windlass StrapTM for further securing of the windlass during patient transport.
