The SAM® Junctional Tourniquet for hemorrhage control is designed to control bleeding where tourniquets would not be effective, such as with IED/Blast injuries or high level amputations. With these types of injuries, time is of the essence. The SAM® Junctional Tourniquet offers a simple design. It is compact, easy to use (only four steps), and quick to apply (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 rugged design ensures that the device stays firmly attached to the patient during transport. Designed to exceed MIL-STD-810g requirements.

In addition, the SAM® Junctional Tourniquet also stabilizes pelvic fractures. Recent studies indicate that IED-type injuries often have associated pelvic fractures. The patented buckle provides the clinically correct force every time, taking the guesswork out of tightening. This is vital in high stress environments where over-tightening or under-tightening could potentially be harmful.

Junctional Tourniquet Application Process:

1) Slide the belt underneath the patient, positioning the Target Compression Device (TCD) over the area to be compressed. Use sterile gauze or hemostatic dressing if targeting directly over a wound. For bi-lateral application, use a second Target Compression Device.


2) Hold the TCD in place and connect the belt using the buckle.


3) Pull the BROWN HANDLES away from each other until the buckle secures. You will hear an audible click. Fasten excess belt in place by pressing it down on the Velcro. You may hear a second click once the belt is secure.


4) Use the hand pump to inflate the TCD until hemorrhage stops. Application time is about 25 seconds. Monitor patient during transport for hemorrhage control and adjust the device if necessary. TO REMOVE, unbuckle the belt.
