SCENARIO DICTATES -
This expert-level guide from GBRS Group demonstrates the critical technique for applying a Combat Application Tourniquet (CAT). It emphasizes overriding the casualty's discomfort to achieve total blood flow cessation by tightening the windlass until extremely uncomfortable, then adding one full rotation before latching. The guide also stresses the importance of leaving the tourniquet in place after application, as only medical professionals should remove or adjust it to prevent further complications.
