The SAM Junctional Emergency Tourniquet (SJT) is an advanced medical device designed for controlling severe hemorrhages in areas where standard tourniquets are ineffective, such as the inguinal (groin) and axilla (armpit) regions. It is also capable of immobilizing pelvic fractures, making it an essential tool for emergency and trauma care.
Key Features:
- Rapid Application: The SJT can be applied in under 25 seconds, ensuring swift response in critical situations to control hemorrhaging and stabilize pelvic fractures.
- Patented SAM AUTO-STOP Buckle: This innovative buckle ensures all slack is removed before the Target Compression Device (TCD) inflation. It features two prongs that activate with a click, confirming correct application and optimal compressive force.
- Secure Velcro System: The buckle is secured with a Velcro system strap, providing additional stability and security during use.
- Efficient TCD Inflation: The TCD inflates quickly using a removable hand pump or any luer lock syringe, effectively minimizing blood loss. The device can accommodate two TCDs for bilateral blood flow occlusion if necessary.
- Versatile and Reliable: Designed for use in complex anatomical areas, the SJT is a versatile and reliable tool for emergency responders, military personnel, and medical professionals.
The SAM Junctional Emergency Tourniquet combines innovative technology with practical design, offering a reliable solution for managing severe hemorrhages and pelvic fractures in emergency scenarios. Its quick application and secure mechanism make it an indispensable part of any advanced trauma care kit.
