Tourniquet for severe bleeding in lower body trauma
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a special belt device (AAJT-S) to stop severe bleeding from the lower body in emergency situations. It may help patients with life-threatening injuries before or upon arriving at the hospital.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older (or believed to be)
- You have a suspected or confirmed serious injury to your lower body with signs of heavy blood loss (like fast heart rate, low blood pressure, or poor blood flow)
- You are thought to benefit from a treatment that uses a belt to squeeze the aorta (main blood vessel) in the lower belly area
- You may also have traumatic cardiac arrest (heart stopped due to injury)

This trial tests a special belt (AAJT-S) that is wrapped around the belly to stop severe bleeding from the lower body (like from a bad car crash or fall). It's for people who are bleeding so much that their body is not getting enough blood, and it aims to buy time until surgery.
This trial tests whether applying a special tourniquet around the abdomen during CPR (chest compressions) can improve survival and brain function in people who have a heart attack outside the hospital. The tourniquet aims to push blood toward the brain and heart during resuscitation.
This trial tests a standard set of emergency blood transfusions for people with life-threatening bleeding from a serious injury. It aims to improve survival by giving blood products quickly before reaching the hospital.
This trial tests a temporary abdominal tourniquet to stop heavy bleeding after childbirth when standard treatments aren't working. It might help women with severe blood loss avoid more invasive procedures.
This trial tests different tourniquet models used in emergencies to stop blood flow in arms and legs. It may help find the best way to control bleeding before reaching a hospital.
This trial tests whether giving whole blood (instead of separate blood parts) to adults with major traumatic bleeding in the prehospital setting improves survival. It's for patients who need blood immediately after a serious injury.
