For background reading there is a thread 'Conflict, war and medicine', which features innovation and I will not merge this thread to it - yet

There are a few TQ designed to put pressure on the abdominal aorta and a few more designed for the femoral artery at the hip. The ones that seem to work the best are the ones that use screw tension and solid rubber pads to apply direct pressure.

The challenge with most of these is that they are big for a m9 aid bag or similar. I can see them being great for truck bags or local nationals resupply aid bag if you have a local to carry additional med stuff.
