Intended Use
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet is indicated for battlefield and trauma situations: . To control difficult bleeds in the inguinal area. To control difficult bleeds in the axilla area. . . To immobilize a pelvic fracture.
Device Story
Device is a vascular clamp for inguinal and axillary hemorrhage control and pelvic fracture immobilization. Consists of a belt and buckle system; provides user feedback via spring-controlled buckle once minimum circumferential force is reached. Includes a manually activated inflatable Target Compression Device (TCD) to occlude arteries or provide compression over hemostatic agents. Used in trauma and battlefield settings by medical personnel. Provides mechanical compression to stop bleeding for up to 4 hours. Benefits include stabilization of difficult-to-reach junctional bleeds and pelvic fractures.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing and cadaver studies.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: metal, injection-molded plastic, and textile. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1. Mechanism: manual, pneumatic point pressure via inflatable TCD and spring-controlled buckle for force feedback. Non-sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for trauma and battlefield patients requiring hemorrhage control in the inguinal or axilla regions, or pelvic fracture immobilization.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A vascular clamp is a surgical instrument used to occlude a blood vessel temporarily.

## Device Description
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet addresses the issue of non-tourniquetable inguinal hemorrhage and axilla hemorrhage. The device is designed to control bleeding in the inguinal area or axilla area where standard tourniquets cannot be used. The SAM Junctional Tourniquet is used to control bleeding for up to 4 hours.
A key feature of the device is a belt/buckle system which provides feedback to the user after a minimum circumferential force around the patient is obtained, after which an inflatable Target Compression Device (TCD) is manually activated to occlude an artery or to provide compressive force over a Hemostatic agent.
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet can also be used as a Circumferential Pelvic belt for pelvic fracture immobilization.
### Intended Use/Indications for use
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet is indicated for battlefield and trauma situations:
- . To control difficult bleeds in the inguinal area.
- To control difficult bleeds in the axilla area. .
- . To immobilize a pelvic fracture.
### Substantial Equivalence Comparison
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet (SJT) is similar in design and intended use to the marketed product manufactured by:

### Conclusion
The SAM Junctional Tourniquet with the additional indication for use (to control difficult bleeds in the axilla area) is substantially equivalent to the SAM Junctional Tourniquet cleared under 510(k) K123694. It is of equivalent design and materials, it addresses the same patient population, it has the same mechanism of action and it uses no new technology. The new indication for use does not introduce new safety or performance concerns.
