THE NEW BENCHMARK FOR BLEEDING CONTROLThe newest evolution of the SOF® Tourniquet sets the benchmark for prehospital tourniquets. Purposeful upgrades allow for smoother and faster one-handed and two-handed applications for the most effective bleeding control.Its innovative design comes from years of extensive research, material testing, and end-user feedback on and off the battlefield. It continues to evolve with your changing medical response needs when bleeding control is needed most. The SOF® Tourniquet easily slides over an arm or leg. It unclips at the buckle to fit around hard-to-reach areas, such as a trapped limb.In developing the SOF® Tourniquet, we asked customers about their experiences and the features that would be most important to them. The feedback gathered is shown in the tourniquet’s improved design and effectiveness. It is stronger, lighter, and easier to use so you can stop the bleed anywhere life takes you.Our patented SOF® Tourniquet was designed by a Special Forces medic while on deployment in Afghanistan in 2003 to save lives. It is still the preferred tourniquet for elite military forces and emergency responders worldwide.
A non-sterile strap or tubing intended to be wrapped around a patient's limb (arm or leg) and manually tightened to reduce blood circulation to or from the portion of the limb distal to where the device is applied. It is typically used by emergency medical services (EMS) for emergency blood loss prevention or for routine blood sampling. It typically does not include latex and may be available in a variety of designs (e.g., Velcro or a self-locking buckle, synthetic rubber band). This is a single-use device.
