Exceeds the new\nANSI\/ISEA Z308.1-2021 Standard for tourniquets. Noted as the best prehospital\ntourniquet in the February 2008 supplement of The Journal of Trauma The\npatented C-A-T is a true one-handed tourniquet proven to be 100% effective by\nthe U.S. Army’s Institute of Surgical Research. Tests proved that the CAT\ncompletely occluded blood flow of an extremity in the event of a traumatic\nwound with significant hemorrhage. The Gen 7 CAT utilizes a durable windlass\nsystem with a patented free-moving internal band providing true\ncircumferential pressure to the extremity. Once adequately tightened, bleeding\nwill cease and the windlass is locked into place. A hook and loop windlass\nretention strap is then applied, securing the windlass to maintain pressure\nduring casualty evacuation. The patented Combat Application Tourniquet (C-A-T)\nfeaturing the proprietary red tip design and the mechanical advantage of a\nband within a band has been the Official Tourniquet of the U.S. Army since\n2005. The innovations in the CAT are protected by U.S. Patent Nos. 7,842,067\nand 7,892,253.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul class=\"a\"\u003e\n         \u003cli\u003eOfficial Tourniquet of the U.S. Army.
