The SAM XT was selected after a team of 12 JEMS appointed judges consisting of EMS product specialists, physicians, educators, managers and paramedics reviewed 64 products by 52 companies designed to not only improve the ability to deliver optimal emergency medical care to critically ill and injured patients, but that also allow EMS agencies to do it safely, more efficiently and with enhanced comfort for the patient. All products were evaluated based on four distinct categories including originality, functionality, ease of use, and need in the EMS setting.

SAM XT Extremity Tourniquet Features

Introduced in 2017, the SAM XT offers:

  • Rapid Application: SAM XT's innovative design requires fewer windlass turns and adjustments that enable easier, faster training and intuitive use.
  • Slack Control: SAM XT's TRUFORCE™ Buckle technology auto-locks to eliminate nearly all tourniquet slack by incorporating innovative baseline force control, activating locking prongs.
  • Durability: Meets MIL-STD 810G standards for increased durability.
  • Distributed Pressure and Support: Made of 100% nylon, SAM XT's TRUFLEX™ Plate distributes force as targeted circumferential pressure while providing additional support for the metal windlass rod.
  • Reliable Strength and Stability: The metal windlass rod is machined of lightweight 6061-T6 aluminum, giving it reliable strength and stability.
  • Weather-Resistant Material: The weather-resistant, night vision-optimized time band allows reliable and secure usage in all environments.
  • All-Weather Precision Strap: The all-weather precision strap is made of single-layer nylon webbing and features intervaled holes that allow the TRUFORCE™ Buckle to lock securely in place at the proper amount of pressure.

JEMS Editor-in-Chief and EMS Today Conference Chairman A.J. Heightman said, "There were an amazing group of Hot Product submissions for our reviewers to review and rate this year. All of the products reviewed were extremely innovative and well designed for the EMS industry, showing that our industry is keeping pace with the current science of emergency medicine and developing or upgrading their products to stay out in front of the science and technology curve."
