Introduction/Background: Non-compressible torso and pelvic hemorrhage are the leading cause of potentially survivable deaths. Although, new devices and techniques have been developed to treat these injuries, full integration into field use and clinical practice guidelines remains an ongoing process. The Abdominal Aortic and Junctional tourniquet (AAJT) and Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) are two methods designed to treat certain torso and junctional injuries. The AAJT utilizes a wedge-shaped bladder that can be directly applied to the abdomen.
