🌻During my humanitarian volunteer trip last month in Kharkiv, I brought genuine CAT 7 🩸 tourniquets from the U.S. This week I learned they were delivered to defenders on the frontline.
📲 Every like, comment, and repost helps defeat the algorithm — and is an act of solidarity with Ukraine.

We've just bought another 25 CAT tourniquets for distribution by @solidaritycollectives to combatants in Ukraine who need them.
Special mention goes to Smart Medical Aid (https://smartmedicalaid.org) who supplied the tourniquets at a very good price.

The tourniquets we bought from JB Tacticals were ridiculously cheap. Almost too cheap to be true really. This makes us wonder about the quality and whether they're up to the job. It's a serious concern, because when a tourniquet fails people die.
The tourniquets are not official CAT standard, but the JB Tacticals online shop does heavily promote this letter from the Ukrainian Guard, which I have to believe is genuine.
We eagerly await feedback on these #tourniquets.
Letzten Samstag habe ich eine #TECC (Tactical Emergency Casualty Care) Fortbildung begleitet.
Unglaublich lehrreich und spannend, auch mit dem Blick durch den Sucher der Kamera.
Seit Samstag traue ich mir die Nutzung von #Tourniquets zu.
Interesting graphic detailing the ways in which people die on a #battlefield.
Surgically uncorrectable torso #trauma & CNS injury (brain, spine) may be very hard to impossible to overcome.
However, Exanguination from Extremity #Wounds means #bleeding to death. This, & a number of other items here, can all be mitigated with correct training & availability of material (#tourniquets, heamostatic gauze, airway tubes etc)
Help us to supply #volunteer #medics with the items they need to save lives.
