The SWAT-Tourniquet is a multi-function trauma care device. Multiple documented saves!

The SWAT-T will treat a variety of injuries, minor to life-threatening. The SWAT-T is being carried by Military (Conventional and Special Operations medical and non-medical personnel), EMS, Law Enforcement Officers, Contractors, Federal Agents, and prepared citizens (individually or as part of active shooter kits). Carried by many as a pressure dressing, all-purpose wrap, primary and/or back-up tourniquet.

The SWAT-T was developed by a former Operator/Medic with 14 years experience in Operational Medicine -former USAF Pararescue Journeyman (Para-Jumper or PJ), Contractor DoJ/FBI SWAT Operations, National Registry Paramedic, and Emergency Medicine Physician. The SWAT-T is being marketed and distributed by TEMS Solutions, LLC and its affiliates.

Tactical black for tactical operators - those working in high risk environments for penetrating trauma.

Uses for the SWAT-T

• Use as Tourniquet - When bleeding is severe (arterial) and loss of life is of greatest concern.Stretch for tourniquet-place above the wound (between wound and heart). Wrap tightly, ensuring ovals/rectangles change to circle/squares. And Tuck. (Pre-plan the tuck for best results)
• Use as Pressure Dressing - When hemorrhage is controlled or for venous and capillary oozing. Wrap the SWAT-T™ over hemostatic agent or sterile dressing then tuck or tape the end to maintain pressure, preventing further contamination and re-bleeding. If the endpoints are met on the dressing you may have a tourniquet and should check for good blood return in the extremity (pulse and capillary refill), or you risk the complications associated with all tourniquets.
• Use as Elastic Bandage - When you need to hold ice near sprains and strains, stabilize a twisted knee/ankle, sling a shoulder. The dressing can also be used to loosely apply pressure across the chest or abdomen. This can be to help close and protect wounds, contain abdominal contents in evisceration, or to assist in stabilization of the pelvis in blunt pelvic trauma. The SWAT-T can be used to splint an extremity to the body, other leg or to a rigid object for immobilization.
