SOMSA 19 – Tactical Mechanical Tourniquet

Thursday, May 9th, 2019

Last week, the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC) issued a revised list of approved medical devices for TCCC. This is the first time that new tourniquets have been added to the list in years.

One of these new tourniquets is the Tactical Mechanical Tourniquet available through Combat Medical.

The TMT is now the widest approved TQ. Applied within 30 seconds, the buckle secures the running end of the strap and the windless is secured via a clip. You can both hear and feel when the windless is correctly secured. Additionally, it can be self applied if needed with the strap already running through the buckle. In fact, it will fit limbs between 5-3/4″ and 38″.

The TMT has also been assigned NSN 6515-01-656-6191.

2019 Special Operations Medical Association Scientific Assembly

Thursday, May 9th, 2019

I haven’t covered SOMSA for several years due to scheduling conflicts. However, since I was at Fort Bragg this week, I decided to jaunt over to Charlotte to attend this year’s event.

Not only was it well attended, but there were an unprecedented number of vendors. Additionally, those seeking out training have an entire menu of options available.

If you’re in the emergency medicine business, I highly recommend you attend this event in the future and you become a member of SOMA.
