Inventor of RATS Tourniquet; Best Bear Guns and Loads: Gun Talk Radio | 4.14.19 C
Jeff Kirkham, inventor of the RATS Tourniquet and former Green Beret, emphasizes the critical importance of carrying and knowing how to use a tourniquet for severe hemorrhage control. He highlights that massive bleeding is a leading preventable cause of death on the battlefield and domestically, often resulting from accidents beyond gunshot wounds. Kirkham stresses that tourniquets are safe and effective, citing a ten-year US military study with no amputations due to their use, and encourages individuals to integrate them into their preparedness plans.
