This training tourniquet is a valuable tool to teach and practice using a SWAT-T (Stretch-Wrap-And-Tuck Tourniquet). Blue is the universal-training color to avoid accidentally placing a training device into service after use.
Other than the color, this training tool emulates the standard black and orange SWAT-T tourniquets for realistic simulation.
SWAT-T's are a versatile addition to any first aid kit. They are effective and easy-to-use tourniquets (for professionals and civilians alike), and are also extremely effective as pressure dressings or compression bandages.
The SWAT-T will treat a variety of injuries, minor to life-threatening. The SWAT-T is being carried by Military (Conventional and Special Operations medical and non-medical personnel), EMS, Law Enforcement Officers, Contractors, Federal Agents, and prepared citizens (individually or as part of active shooter kits). Carried by many as a pressure dressing, all-purpose wrap, primary and/or back-up tourniquet.
The SWAT-T was developed by a former Operator/Medic with 14 years experience in Operational Medicine -former USAF Pararescue Journeyman (Para-Jumper or PJ), Contractor DoJ/FBI SWAT Operations, National Registry Paramedic, and Emergency Medicine Physician.
Ease of application is one of the greatest benefits of the SWAT-T; individuals can effectively apply it in seconds with little to no prior training. Simply SWAT - Stretch, Wrap, And Tuck.
Please note: the Blue SWAT-T is for Training purposes only.
