Getting shot in the groin has to suck beyond all imagining. So too must getting shot anywhere else, let alone places where you can’t cinch a tourniquet. The CRoC, or Combat Ready Clamp, gives your bleeding hard-to-reach spots the pressure they need.
The CRoC was designed with military personnel primarily in mind, because they’re the one who’d likely have to worry about getting shot in awkward places. But the device works for any part of the body where it would be difficult or impractical to apply a tourniquet, like the chest, abdomen, or neck. As for the average consumer, maybe you just got mugged near your house. Or you have a really deep shaving injury. Either way, this could save your life. [Combat Medical Systems via OhGizmo]
