Meet Smart ET: The Tourniquet Anyone Can Use to Save a Life

Life-threatening bleeding can occur anywhere—at home, on the road, or in public spaces. In these moments, bystanders are often the first and only chance a person has to survive. But most people don’t know how to apply a tourniquet correctly—and that’s a serious problem. Smart ET, the electronic tourniquet, was created to solve this issue. It replaces uncertainty with smart features that guide users through proper application. With automatic tension control and built-in alerts, Smart ET empowers anyone—with or without training—to stop critical bleeding quickly and safely. This is more than a device. It’s an opportunity to save lives without hesitation.

The Problem With Traditional Tourniquets

For decades, traditional tourniquets have been used in emergency medicine, the military, and trauma care to control bleeding. They are effective, but they’re also prone to misuse—especially in high-stress situations.

The issues are serious:

• A tourniquet applied too loosely can allow arterial bleeding to continue, worsening the injury.

• A tourniquet applied too tightly or left on for too long can damage nerves and soft tissue.

• Without training, it’s easy to place a tourniquet too far from the wound or even over a joint, rendering it ineffective.

• And perhaps most dangerously, improvised tourniquets (like belts or cords) can cause more harm than good.

Even among first responders, these errors are common. Manual tourniquets like the CAT or SOF-TT require a practiced hand. CAT models, while lightweight, are made of plastic and provide no feedback during use. SOF-TT units are more robust but too bulky for everyday public use.

Most civilians do not carry a tourniquet—and even if they did, very few know how to use it properly.

That’s the gap Smart ET fills. By integrating automatic safeguards and a user-friendly interface, it takes the burden off the responder and makes tourniquet application both fast and foolproof.

Smart ET’s Built-In Intelligence Makes It Foolproof

With Smart ET, there's no guesswork. The device handles the most complex part of bleeding control: applying the right pressure.

Once placed on the limb, the user simply:

1. Pulls the strap around the limb

2. Rotates the BOA tightening mechanism

3. Waits for the audible “click” that signals correct tension has been reached

No need to measure pressure manually. No risk of under-tightening or cutting off circulation unnecessarily. The built-in automatic tension limiter reads the limb’s circumference and applies only as much pressure as needed to fully block arterial blood flow.

Even more, the Application Time Alert system tracks how long the tourniquet has been active. It begins timing the moment you stop turning the dial, then issues visual and sound alerts after the first hour and every 15 minutes after that. This feature helps both the user and medical staff avoid complications from prolonged use.

The result? A tourniquet anyone can apply, even under extreme stress.

And Smart ET isn’t just smart—it’s strong. With a steel tension line, high-strength materials, and an impact-resistant casing, it’s built for real emergencies. It’s also reusable when reset correctly, making it ideal for organizations managing public safety kits.

Smart ET isn’t just smarter. It’s safer.

More Than a Product—A Life-Saving Revolution

What makes Smart ET a game-changer isn’t just the technology. It’s how that technology brings professional-level trauma care into the hands of everyday people.

Here’s where it fits in:

• Cars and public transit, where 30% of serious accidents involve bleeding

• Offices and warehouses, where machinery injuries can cause limb trauma

• Schools and campuses, where trained staff may not be present during the first few minutes of an incident

• Public spaces, where quick response time can mean the difference between life and death

Every emergency kit should contain a tourniquet—but not just any tourniquet. The evidence is clear: improperly applied tourniquets can cause permanent damage or even death. Yet, properly applied tourniquets save lives—and Smart ET makes proper application automatic.

Its growth reflects this. In-hospital survival rates are higher when tourniquets are used, and prevalence of use has increased by over 100% from 2015 to 2019.

Now, Smart ET brings that life-saving trend to civilians, commuters, educators, and families—not just professionals.

Whether you’re driving a truck, running a business, or managing a school safety plan, Smart ET equips you to respond with confidence. No training needed.
