(Health-NewsWire.Net, February 23, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- The battle-tested SWAT-Tourniquet, a component of the Auto Trauma Kit by First Aid & Safety, a Clearwater based company, has been redesigned. This redesigned version of the tourniquet is now included in the Auto Trauma Kit, as part of a set of key emergency preparedness items.
"This redesign makes the already effective SWAT-Tourniquet better than ever," says First Aid & Safety COO, Anna Loehwing. "It is important to be able to protect yourself and others at all times, and this Auto Trauma kit works well in any situation. This is our top-of-the-line kit. It was especially made for situations involving severe trauma and blood loss. In all honesty, having this kit on hand can be the difference between life and death. We've included two really great lifesaving items -- the SWAT-T Tourniquet, announced here, and the QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge. The Tourniquet can stop major arterial bleeding to extremities fast. The QuikClot sponge clots wounds and stops bleeding at the spot of the injury. Stopping the bleeding, and fast, is what will save a life. Our top-tier kit is designed to give you what you need to do just that."
The SWAT-Tourniquet stands for Stretch, Wrap And Tuck, and was designed for military and civilian special weapons and tactics team. it allows a very rapid means of controlling extremity bleeding, and allows application higher into the groin and armpit than other tourniquets. Its ease of application is one of its great benefits; individuals can effectively apply it in seconds with little to no training.
"Many people are alive today because of these key items," says Ms. Loehwing. "When someone needs a blood clotting agent due to a vehicle or road accident, QuikClot is the best there is. Between that and the tourniquet you'll be well equipped to handle emergency treatment until help can arrive."
The Auto Trauma Kit With SWAT-Tourniquet also comes with gloves, antiseptic wipes, gauze, medical tape and bandages. Comes in a tough nylon bag with easy-open zipper and hook. Now available on Amazon.
