Compression Works, Inc.
Compression Works is a veteran-owned business dedicated to developing and manufacturing lifesaving hemorrhage control solutions, including the innovative AAJT-S device. Their mission is to stop non-compressible hemorrhages where they occur and save lives using easy-to-use technology. Their products are used by military, trauma centers, EMS, law enforcement, and first responders worldwide, with a focus on battlefield and emergency medical applications. The company offers the AAJT-S device, which features an innovative wedge-shaped bladder for stable and complete occlusion of blood flow to critical areas such as the upper extremities, lower extremities, and pelvis. It is FDA-cleared for both military and civilian use and is indispensable for managing difficult-to-control junctional hemorrhage and pelvic bleeding.
