Same function of a CAT tourniquet without the bulk- buy today!
Great Design! This is approved to stop traumatic bleeding & is a great alternative to the CAT due to its smaller/compact size. This is an original manufacturer product. Great quality, my last one is still being carried daily 4 years later. It is the size of a smaller trifold wallet. You can carry in any pocket without knowing its there. I have one in every bag I use for duty. It can also be used for other reasons than a tourniquet, so you can reduce your items in a medical bag setup. Buy one today!

I hope I never use them
It’s well-made and well documented, but as I said in the title, I hope I never need them.

I’m buying into compression tourniquets
*I’m copying and pasting to review two tourniquets here together, pay attention to which one I’m talking about* In the search for less expensive alternatives to the CAT and SOF-T, I found a bunch of different ones. The two I really liked on Amazon were the RATS and the SWAT-T. They work in a different fashion from the traditional windlass variety, but are very simple and very fast. Like anything, you need to practice and get familiar. I haven’t used either in a real scenario as of yet, but have practiced on several adults of all sizes and my 5 and 8 years olds, all on upper and lower extremities, and most verifying absence of pulses by palpation and SpO2 with waveform. No failures with either tourniquet. The SWAT-T I would NOT recommend for SELF aid to the UPPER extremity, it’s doable with practice but slow and not the one I’d want to stake my life on due to the difficulty involved, that’s my only negative finding there. Self aid to lower extremity or buddy aid, no problems at all. Other wise it’s an easy to use, very fast, very effective tourniquet. The RATS takes some getting used to for self application of an upper extremity as well, but a little practice and it’s not bad. The biggest thing there is keeping all the slack out and keeping the bands as close together as possible. Overall, I think I’ll stick with these. Most of the people at work (EMT’s and paramedics) also seemed impressed with them and found them easy to use after a demonstration.

Probably the simplest and most versatile tourniquet available
Except for the possibility of self administering to a high arm injury, this is about as simple as it gets - take one wrap around and over to capture the starting end, then pull, wrap, pull, wrap, pull, wrap . As I understand it, you need two things to arrest blood loss on a limb - constriction, and width of application. This does both. As an additional benefit - there is no minimum effective size of the area to be treated, big, broad thigh or narrow wrist, no difference - which is not always the case with mechanical tourniquets. It can be used on man, woman or child. It can be used on a dog. It can serve as a wrap to hold a bandage in place. It can be used to wrap a limb securely in a splint. Don't get me wrong, my trauma kits also include a CAT-style TQ for the "worst case", but each kit also has a Swat-T.

Like most reviews out there this thing may not be ...
Like most reviews out there this thing may not be your primary if you are looking for a dedicated tourniquet as it is not combat proven/approved/rated. However plenty of reviews say this is a great secondary/back up and has so many other uses it's great to toss in the kit anyways. Primary should be a US made CAT tourniquet or the like as that is actually approved for combat use. But this thing is great for pressure bandages, sling shots, holding random crap together, and just about anything else a strong elastic band can be used for outdoors.

My second purchase
I have purchased several of these to have in first aid kits and range kits. They seem to be well made and can perform the job they are intended for. God forbid this will ever be needed for myself or anyone else in need. I do like to be prepared just in case. I decided to go with this style tourniquet because its not limited to limbs like CAT tourniquets are. This seem to have many options to stop blood loss on multiple areas. Which in my mind was the best option.

Perfect for kids and K9
As a Stop the Bleed instructor and local AEMT I have had to use one of these on a child who lost a limb. People are generally taught to use CAT tourniquets which I also carry but I always have a few of these swat T around as well. This can fit any size limb even K9 officers which can’t be achieved by the CAT tourniquet. These are simple to use and have instructions right on it. These are also cost effective if you can’t afford a CAT tourniquet a few of these would be good.

Bonjour. Tout d'abord, je me dois de préciser que je ne suis pas un professionnel du secourisme donc je vous encourage à vérifier mes propos. Le garrot SWAT-T est assez polyvalent et je lui trouve des avantages et des inconvénients. Avantages : - Compact et plat quand il est rangé - Simple à comprendre car pas de mécanisme (mais nécessite tout de même de lire la notice et d'être formé au secourisme) - Dépourvu de pièce rigide qui entraverait sa souplesse, il peut être enroulé sur de petits membres (enfants, animaux) - Peut visiblement servir à improviser un pansement compressif (avec compresse gaze etc.) si on le serre moins fort qu'en mode garrot Inconvénients : - Nécessite 2 mains pour être posé (à priori, pas de pose possible sur son propre bras) Le SWAT-T existe en couleur noire https://amzn.to/2tA1wkI ou orange https://amzn.to/2FlEZLd Personnellement, je conseille de porter un garrot CAT ou SOF tactical sur soi car ils sont utilisables d'une main (donc sur soi-même). En revanche, pour ses atouts uniques, je conseille d'avoir le SWAT-T en complément dans son sac, pour intervenir sur autrui. Ça permet d'avoir 2 garrots au lieu d'un, tout en combinant les avantages de chacun ! Voici les 2 modèles de garrot tourniquet les plus éprouvés et recommandés à ce jour : - La CAT gen.7 (Utilisable à une main sur soi-même. Sans doute le plus connu. Il en existe des beaucoup moins chers de ce genre mais ce sont des copies...) https://amzn.to/2MUKuoA - Le SOF tactical (Utilisable à une main sur soi-même) : https://amzn.to/2MUdDjp Autres indispensables à avoir dans sa trousse de secours : Si vous souhaitez stopper une hémorragie importante (c'est à dire qui ne s'arrête pas d'elle-même), au bras ou à la jambe par exemple, il existe plusieurs méthodes. Une des plus simples est d'utiliser une pansement compressif. C'est un pansement qui va venir appuyer sur la plaie (et qui généralement possède aussi un agent hémostatique pour favoriser la coagulation il me semble). Je vous encourage à suivre une formation de secourisme PSC1 pour apprendre à vous en servir. - La version la plus simple d'utilisation est ce coussin hémostatique : https://amzn.to/2ZY2DqH ou https://amzn.to/2ttXbzG - Sinon, il y a la version "militaire" (appelée bandage israélien) qui a l'avantage de prendre moins de place dans un sac (car l'intérêt est de l'avoir toujours à porté de main et non pas rangé dans la pharmacie au domicile) : https://amzn.to/37GzWkT Il y a aussi le domaine des pansements occlusifs, comme ceux de la marque Hyfin. Son but est de rendre "hermétique" une "plaie soufflante" pour éviter un pneumothorax en cas de perforation. Je vous conseille d'acquérir ce genre de pansement car ça peut sauver des vies (il faudra vous renseigner en parallèle sur son utilisation). Aujourd'hui, le modèle "Hyfin vent" est le meilleur choix car il fonctionne comme une valve, capable d'évacuer l'air en trop qui se serait accumulé entre la cage thoracique et le poumon (comprimant dangereusement ce dernier). Vous pouvez le trouver ici : https://amzn.to/2FlwfVp Attention, il faut bien regarder s'ils sont vendus en pack de 2 ou à l'unité. Il est préférable d'en avoir une paire car, en cas de blessure traversante par balle (ou autre cause), il faudra appliquer un pansement occlusif sur la plaie d'entrée (par exemple sur le thorax) et un autre sur la plaie de sortie (par exemple dans le dos). Tous ces produits valent assez chers mais ils permettent tous de sauver des vies ; ce sont vraiment des indispensables à avoir et à savoir maîtriser (formation PSC1 ou plus).
