"I have had the recent opportunity to test the Mechanical Advantage

Tourniquet with several U.S. Army Reserve Component surgical

teams. It occluded flow in all limbs tested. It was easy to apply with

one hand and extremely easy to tighten until Doppler signal proved

that blood flow was occluded. The MAT works very, very well."

- Col. Tom Knuth, MD MC Program Director, Army Trauma Training Center,
Kings County Hospital, Brooklyn, NY
