An innovative new hemostat designed to bond with specific sites which are present on the surface of red blood cells and platelets to make a gel like clot /plug. This process is totally different from the body’s normal clotting mechanisms. Anticoagulants such as heparin and warfarin (often sold as Coumadin) can interfere with the body’s normal clotting process. They often delay blood clotting times. Hyperthermia is also well known to delay clotting. As Celox™ works independently of the normal clotting process, its clotting ability is not affected by the presence of anticoagulants or by cold temperature. Laboratory testing has confirmed that Celox™ quickly clots blood containing heparin or warfarin (Coumadin). It has also shown that Celox™ also quickly clots blood which has been cooled to simulate hypothermia.
The TraumaFix dressing is a substantial, highly absorbent dressing pad, capable of absorbing over ten times its own weight in fluid. This pressure bandage allows direct pressure to be applied quickly and maintained easily, this is secured instantly with a velcro style fastening. The dressing is a significant advance in the treatment of trauma injuries. Tear-open waterproof fabric packaging. This dressing is approved by NATO and applies pressure directly on the wound without the need for a plastic pressure bar that is used in the Israeli bandage.
SOF Tactical Tourniquet is the pinnacle of tourniquet technology. Light yet robust, it's designed to ensure absolute reliability in trauma and bleed control circumstances. Crafted using high-strength lightweight alloy, it boasts a 1.5” strap, offering superior arterial compression while maximising patient comfort. This tourniquet doesn't just stand out because of its weight at just 90g, but also its intuitive clip and buckle system, ensuring rapid, secure fastening even under stress. Its impeccable design minimises blood loss, potentially proving pivotal in emergency situations.
What sets the SOF Tactical Tourniquet apart is its versatility, being suited for a myriad of conditions, whether wet, sandy, or frozen, thanks to the absence of Velcro®. Developed in collaboration with frontline professionals, including soldiers and paramedics, it shines with its stability, effectiveness, and reliability. Furthermore, this binding system, known for its hemostasis prowess, can be reused both in practice and in real-world scenarios. It has passed rigorous testing by the US Army Institute of Surgical Research, highlighting its effectiveness. Simplistic in its use, it maintains consistent performance whether applied on an arm or leg. Designed for durability, the SOF®TT-W is ready to perform, irrespective of environmental challenges. It's not just a tool; it's a commitment to ensuring the highest level of care in critical moments.
The Special Operations Forces Tactical Tourniquet (SOFTT) is one of the tourniquets that has been approved and utilised by various branches of the U.S. military, including the U.S. Army, as part of their individual first aid kits (IFAKs). The SOFTT and the Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT) have been two of the more widely recognised and used tourniquets in military and civilian trauma care, with the C-A-T as the official #1 choice for the US Army.
Advanced haemostatic gauze designed for severe bleeding control, ideal for battlefields and emergency scenarios. Conforms to wounds and promotes rapid clotting. Easily identifiable in X-rays.
The Prometheus ChitoGauze XR Pro heralds a new era in topical wound haemostatic agents. Unlike many conventional dressings, this product seamlessly adapts to diverse wound contours, facilitating effortless packing and swift bleeding control. With its chitosan-enriched design, ChitoGauze XR Pro promises limited particle shedding into wounds, setting it apart from other alternatives.
Chitosan, a natural and biocompatible polysaccharide, augments the gauze's haemostatic efficiency. This enhanced coating interacts optimally with blood to manage bleeding, whilst its unique blend with HemCon's proprietary manufacturing ensures blood movement deceleration through the dressing. Furthermore, it aids clotting at a localised level by binding red blood cells and platelets, acting independently from the traditional clotting cascade. The result? A pioneering dressing that stands unparalleled in wound care and bleeding control.
The Special Operations Forces Tactical Tourniquet, the US Army’s newest medical device, is being issued to Soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Designed for one-handed application, the SOFTT allows a Soldier to apply a tourniquet himself, replacing the Army’s field-expedient method in which Soldiers used a bandage and a stick to stop blood flow from a wound. The field-expedient method worked, “but the SOFTT is better,” said Sgt. 1st Class Michael C. Klemowski, serving with the Multi-National Force – Iraq personnel section. “Having this issued to Soldiers will cut down on casualties because it is a time- saving device,” said Klemowski, a former drill sergeant. “The less time that is wasted, the better chance there is of saving someone’s life.”
The new tourniquet is suitable for hard to reach injuries. The SOFTT’s strap can be released completely through the web clamp and then re-threaded, allowing for application to trapped limbs. Working on the same principles as all tourniquets, “(The SOFTT) is used to stop the bleeding from an extremity and to prevent shock,” said Staff Sgt. Thomas J. Brennan, Multi-National Corps - Iraq surgeon cell NCOIC.
The SOFTT has two latches used to secure the metal handle. While only one latch is required for the tourniquet to be effective, the extra latch provides extra securing ability, depending on the handle’s position after tightening.
To apply the tourniquet, one slides it over the limb and pulls the tail quickly. Once the slack is removed, twist the handle until bleeding is controlled and secure the latch. Finally, to prevent accidental loosening, tighten the screw on the belt.
The SOFTT is used as a last resort to treat a wound, Brennan said. “Try to stop the bleeding with a bandage,” Brennan said to a class of Soldiers learning how to use the new tourniquet. “After using a pressure dressing for five minutes, if the bleeding persists, use the tourniquet.”Once the tourniquet has been applied, check the pulse on either the hand or foot where the injury is. “No pulse means the tourniquet is working,” Brennan said.
The SOFTT is constructed of quality, high strength materials.
The tourniquet handle is machined from a solid piece of aircraft aluminum and maintains its strength in the most extreme temperature.
The tri-rings are molded Acetyl, a high impact plastic that will also maintain its strength in extreme temperature.
No velcro is used to maintain tension! This greatly reduces the change of accidental release of the tourniquet during patient movement.
Our buckle will also perform when dirty, muddy, wet or sandy. Blood+Sand = Mud. Velcro does not work when dirty…
Safety set screw prevents accidental release of pressure during tactical patient movement.
Dual locking rings provide a back up in the event of a broken ring.
Low maintenance – safety screws and buckles are now factory coated with a rust preventative /lubricant.
Repairable – The SOFT can be easily repaired if it is damaged. 550 cord, boot laces or zip ties can be used to replace the tri-rings.
