We are pleased to announce a brand new life-saving product called the Tourni-Key, a simple, cost effective limb tourniquet available exclusively from SP Services (UK) Ltd.
As lots of our customers on LinkedIn have previously purchased a citizenAID Pocket Guide, we wanted you to be one of the first to know about this new and exciting product.
Brigadier Tim Hodgetts, one of the founders of citizenAID and inventor of the Tourni-Key said “The Tourni-Key is a simple idea. It is to provide an affordable tourniquet option for public use, by improvising with a strip of material that is commonly available - a tie, a thin scarf, a triangular bandage."
"The Tourni-Key is a rod that is designed to be secured. You can 'quick lock' the device with the hook, or you can 'hard lock' the device by passing the blade under the tightened material. If the hook is pointing in the wrong direction to be secured, simply flip it 180 degrees using the head of the key."
"We know tourniquets are painful and some of this pain comes from skin bunching. To reduce this 'pinch' we have added an 'anti-pinch card', to slide behind the knot before tightening. We have chosen bright yellow for the device so it is easily visible when applied.”

The Tourni-Key is in stock right now at SP Services and available to purchase online at www.spservices.co.uk/tourni-key or by calling the team on 01952 288 999.

7 年Not convinced... I have to still have another piece of material to wrap around and then use the key... combat tourniquet is easier and works great.
