What you carry matters when it comes to medical. What is your opinion on TQ’s? Did you know this info? The interview was definitely a good one with a lot of good medical advice from an expert in the field.
Awesome guest with a lot of good knowledge the whole interview was a great load of good info. Thank you for the watch share and comment hopefully I can edit up some more because there was a lot of good info. This part is definitely important if you are going to carry understanding the basics of medical is important. As realistically you will likely encounter a med emergency over a deadly force incident in your lifetime.
@@TedinLasVegas I’m carrying the ETQ from Snakestaff Systems as well as a CAT when I bag carry. The only thing I worry about with the ETQ is it’s kinda flimsy. Other than that it’s a small package.
@AngrySargeG01 I'm looking for something small I can carry on my belt under my shirt that will stop bleed. Everything concealable in every day carry send to also not be recommended. My CAT is more noticeable than my pistol
In training, we found RAT TQs consistently break when you have the appropriate amount of tension needed to stop bloodflow. So even if you don't care about the other problems with bungee style TQs or you're thinking about using one for whatever other scenario you're thinking, just keep in mind that they're an overall inadequate design. I carry a CAT and a SWAT-T daily. The SWAT-T can also be used as a pressure wrap, so it has multiple uses and it takes like no room in my back pocket. But my go-to in an arterial bleed is def gonna be the CAT first.
Exactly the SWAT T is a great pressure wrap. Thank you for the input and view on this topic. This is one I am always wanting to learn and stay up on. I agree the CAT is the go to I carry one on my duty belt and thankfully I’ve not ever had to use it for myself but I’ve used it on others. I appreciate the watch and comment as well. Thank you.
Yeah, came here to say the little pot-metal clinch at the end of the RAT is not consistently strong enough for the task in my experience. Got two CAT7s in the bag in my truck cab and one on me.
Good info I could definitely say that is a a good case for why it’s not something that should be in use. Also I applaud your level of preparedness with the CATs. Good stuff.
@@Beefsupreme13 so in this video he doesn’t say it won’t save lives he mentioned that after research you want wider tourniquets so this way it will cause less tissue damage and be more effective at stopping the bleed. This is all proven and why rats are not recommended in TCCC. In this case wider is better. I’m not a fan of rats tourniquets but that is for multiple reasons. Preference, real world and training use definitely has driven my decision on why I don’t use them.
I agree with this comment! Use what you have because what you have is going to be more effective over what you don’t have. Appreciate that comment and the watch.

Great information !! Thanks Guys 🥰
No thank you for watching, commenting and sharing. You are the best!!!
Good discussion; however, cats don't work well in concealed carry. Got any suggestions for concealable tourniquets?

@@TedinLasVegas I got you the ETQ is tiny and will more than likely do the job I have no doubt in that it’s why I carry one.
@AngrySargeG01 not familiar with that, will look it up; thanks!
@@TedinLasVegas Snakestaff Systems ETQ
Thats some good info right there. Always good to save a life but also not leave permanent damage if possible.
Our guest was a wealth of knowledge for sure.

Great job not actually explaining why the rats is bad or won’t save lives

If RAT is all you have use it.
I agree with this comment! Use what you have because what you have is going to be more effective over what you don’t have. Appreciate that comment and the watch.
CATS the standard but a RAT can work for some
smaller children and service animals
