When time is of the essence, with IED/Blast injuries or high level amputations, the SAM® Junctional Tourniquet for hemorrhage control is designed to control bleeding where tourniquets would not be effective.
The SAM® Junctional Tourniquet is compact and easy to use (only four steps) and application is quick - typically under 25 seconds. The Target Compression Device (TCD) is placed at or near the injury site and pumped up until the bleeding stops. Two TCDs can be used to occlude blood flow bilaterally if needed. The sturdy design ensures that the device stays firmly attached to the patient during transport and exceeds MIL-STD-810g requirements.
In addition, the SAM® Junctional Tourniquet is the ONLY junctional hemorrhage device FDA cleared to stabilize pelvic fractures. Vital in high stress environments the patented buckle provides the clinically correct force every time, taking the guesswork out of tightening.
The SJT is the ONLY junctional hemorrhage device to provide the clinically correct force for pelvic fractures.
Recently the SJT recently was announced a winner of EMS World Magazine’s 2013 Top Innovation Awards.
It also was a JEMS Hot Product Award winner for 2014!
