Tests proved that the CAT completely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic wound with significant hemorrhage.The Gen 7 CAT utilizes a durable windlass system with a patented free-moving internal band providing true circumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding will cease and the windlass is locked into place. A hook and loop windlass retention strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure during casualty evacuation. The patented Combat Application Tourniquet® (C-A-T®) featuring the proprietary red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a band within a band has been the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since 2005. The innovations in the CAT are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067 and 7,892,253.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"North American Rescue","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50099620512027,"sku":"NAR-30-0001","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/9083\/4203\/files\/30-0001_1a.jpg?v=1743282593","url":"https:\/\/medicalresponsekits.com\/products\/combat-application-tourniquet-c-a-t","provider":"Medical Response Kits","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
