If we talk about the aftermaths of a war or a natural calamity, one of the major issues of concern is the amputation. And the main reason behind this is the blood loss due to injured limbs. The
Mechanical Advantage Tourniquet (MAT) developed by the Cybertech Medical Product Development is the most proficient and preferred device used by the Army, Navy, and Marines to avert the loss of blood and tissue damage.
The MAT has already got a Gold 2006 Industrial Design Excellence Award (IDEA Award). The Business Week selected the MAT in their feature ‘Design for a Dangerous Planet’ in the July 10 ‘Best Product Design of 2006‘ issue.
The design of the MAT makes it quite easy to use and prevents the tissue damage and loss of limbs. The results have been positive and outstanding.
