The Rapid Field Tourniquet™ (RFTQ™)* is a lightweight, compact, and highly efficient tourniquet that can be used to assist in the control of life
threatening extremity hemorrhage. The simple design combined with rugged components allows the Rapid Field Tourniquet to survive the rigors of field use under any conditions.

Ease of Application
The RFTQ allows easy and rapid application under stress. Even one hand application is
easily accomplished. The operation of the RFTQ requires no fine motor skills.

Rugged and Reliable
The simple design and rugged components allow the RFTQ to survive the rigors of field
use. With an extended aluminum alloy ratchet lever, mil-spec nylon webbing, steel
screw and post attachment, and a high strength polymer buckle the RFTQ is ready for
rugged field usage.
The design and rugged components allow the RFTQ to operate in temperature
extremes and when covered with blood, snow, dirt or sand.

One hand or entrapped limb operation
The RFTQ device is simple to apply one handed or to an entrapped limb.
When applied to an entrapped limb the proprietary polymer coating of the strap tip
allows easy unthreading/threading of the nylon strap.
When applied one handed the high strength nylon ratchet strap retains a curved shape.
This helps hold the RFTQ in place on the limb and allows easier initial tightening with
the nylon strap.

Lightweight and Compact
The RFTQ is lightweight and compact to allow easy storage in a pouch, pack, or pocket.
The integral Velcro OneWrap™ strap holds the RFTQ compactly closed. The same
Velcro OneWrap™ strap can then be utilized for added security over the ratchet lever.

Designed by a board certified Emergency Medicine physician and Iraq
combat veteran.
