The SWAT-T, Stretch, Wrap, and Tuck Tourniquet is an innovative and versatile bandage featuring a non-latex elastic material that encircles a limb and secures itself for prolonged, effective compression.
Its name provides a guide for application: Stretch, Wrap, and Tuck, while the markings on the band show the correct tourniquet pressure.
The SWAT-Tourniquet offers a faster method to manage bleeding from limbs and can be applied higher in the groin and armpit areas compared to other tourniquets. Its simplicity in use is a major advantage, allowing individuals to apply it effectively in seconds with minimal or no training.
It also functions as an occlusive dressing, a pressure bandage, and an elastic wrap.
The band has been utilized thousands of times, enduring the extreme cold of Antarctica and being boiled in water without losing its strength.
