The Department of Defense (DOD) is seeking innovative solutions for the development of a junctional tourniquet aimed at controlling severe hemorrhage in battlefield scenarios. The objective is to create a user-friendly device that can be applied quickly by non-medical personnel, effectively managing junctional bleeding with minimal training and within a minute of application. This initiative is critical as exsanguination from massive blood loss accounts for over 80% of potentially survivable battlefield deaths, and the proposed tourniquet must be lightweight, portable, and durable under various environmental conditions. The solicitation is currently closed, with the opportunity having opened on January 3, 2024, and the application due date set for February 21, 2024.
