The models are designed for use in environments where every second counts.

Helpful tips for choosing a tourniquet

 When choosing a tourniquet, it is important to consider its ease of use, reliability, and ability to stop bleeding in critical conditions. The model should be easy to apply with one hand, made from durable material, and have a quick fastening mechanism. Choose the model that best suits the specifics of your work.

Frequently asked questions about tourniquets

Can a tourniquet be applied independently?

Yes, a tourniquet is designed for use even with one hand, making it applicable in emergency situations.

How long can a tourniquet be worn on a limb?

A tourniquet should only be worn until the bleeding stops, prior to medical assistance. After that, the limb's condition should be assessed, and if necessary, the tourniquet can be removed under medical supervision. Prolonged wearing for more than 2 hours increases the risk of tissue and nerve damage.

How often should the tourniquet be checked?

The tourniquet should be regularly checked for damage and wear to ensure its effectiveness in case of use.
