The SOF Tactical Tourniquet is one of the top performing tourniquets currently available. It is the tourniquet of choice for many of the world's most elite and experienced warriors who have selected it for its outstanding ability to control severe bleeding, high level of reliability and ease of application. While some military units have replaced their issue tourniquets with the SOFTT, others military units have implemented SOP's stating that the SOF Tactical Tourniquet is to be used on all lower extremity bleeds. That means the SOFTT is the tourniquet that trusted to control the most severe extremity hemorrhage on the battlefield.

The key to successful implementation of a device to be used in a high stress environment is training and ease of use. For law enforcement officers, application of the tourniquet is similar to the use of a hobble. This existing level of familiarity reduces training time and aids in the effectiveness of the device.

Advantages of the SOF Tactical Tourniquet

• 100% Effective. Proven to be 100% effective during US Army Institute of Surgical Research testing.
• Simple application. The SOFTT is applied the same to an arm or leg. Unlike other tourniquets that require you to learn two methods of application and implement the proper method when under stress, the SOFTT is applied the same way to an arm or leg. By accounting for the factors of human performance in combat we have minimized the risk of failure. Applying a tourniquet should not be a multiple choice exam, it should be simple and straight forward. The SOFTT provides the necessary effectiveness with an unmatched level of simplicity to increase the overall effectiveness of the device.
• Durability. 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 extreme temperatures. The tri-rings are molded Acetyl, a high impact plastic that will also maintain its strength in extreme operating conditions.
• Reliable. The SOF Tactical Tourniquet is designed to reduce the chance of accidental release or mechanical failure. Unlike other materials including Velcro, the fastening system will perform when soiled, muddy, frozen, or wet.
• Safety set screw prevents accidental release of pressure during tactical patient movement. The screw is not required to gain hemorrhage control, but it is recommended if the patient will be moved in a tactical environment.
• Dual locking rings offer a back up locking system.

Description

Tactical Medical Solutions Inc. was formed to develop quality, effective supplies and equipment for combat and tactical medicine. We knew what worked for us in that environment and wanted to share it with as many people as possible. Our products reflect our experience, situations we have faced and friends we have lost. Our goal is to prevent others from experiencing those losses by offering equipment that allows them to operate more efficiently and effectively. Minimizing preventable death in a combat or tactical environment is a realistic and attainable goal and we are proud to offer products that will help you reach it.

All of our employees are former tactical medical professionals or have a close relationship with them. We maintain close ties with some of the most elite and experienced medics in the world and every one of our products must pass their evaluation before we put our name on it. We understand the principles of human performance as it relates to combat stress and design our products to complement that performance not complicate it. This approach to product development and evaluation leads to products that truly work in combat. We don�t design products to pass a structured laboratory test in a controlled environment or barely meet a requirement as a substitute. They are designed to function when there is no structure, when you have minimal supplies and very little time. When there is no one else there to help, and you probably have more than one casualty. You are trying to save lives while someone is trying to take yours. That is the environment of the tactical health care provider and that is where our products excel.
