The RapidStop® Tourniquet is a one-hand, self-application tourniquet designed to control life-threatening limb haemorrhage. It uses gross motor control only, so an injured person can apply it themselves under stress, and a responder using two hands can apply it even faster to a casualty.
Why responders choose RapidStop®:
- Intuitive application: designed for one-hand self-use when an arm or leg is injured.
- Reliable occlusion: achieves full arterial occlusion rapidly on both upper and lower limbs.
- Strong construction: built to withstand demanding field conditions.
- Suits a wide range of users: EMS, military, first responders, workplace first aid, and everyday carry (EDC).
How to use the RapidStop® Tourniquet: place the tourniquet high and tight above the wound, pull the band through the buckle to remove slack, secure it firmly, then twist the windlass until bleeding stops. Lock the windlass in place and note the time of application.
Where it fits in your kit: the RapidStop® is appropriate for controlling haemorrhage from injuries to the arms or legs. It is a practical addition to trauma kits, vehicle first aid kits, ambulance loadouts, and personal EDC pouches.
