About
Compression Works is a specialized medical device manufacturer based in Birmingham, Alabama, focused on developing life-saving hemorrhage control solutions for the healthcare industry. The company manufactures the FDA-cleared Abdominal Aortic and Junctional Tourniquet – Stabilized (AAJT-S), a breakthrough medical device designed to stop non-compressible hemorrhages in critical situations. This innovative tourniquet system is uniquely engineered to address bleeding in abdominal, axilla, inguinal, and pelvic fracture locations, making it the only junctional tourniquet proven to have saved human lives. With FDA clearance and CE Mark certification obtained in 2011, Compression Works demonstrates its commitment to meeting rigorous medical device standards. The AAJT-S device can produce a REBOA effect in under one minute, providing rapid hemorrhage control when time is critical. Its lightweight and compact design makes it ideal for integration into medical emergency kits and field packs used by healthcare professionals, military medics, and first responders. Under the trademarked motto "Hemorrhage Stops Here," Compression Works continues to advance medical technology that addresses critical bleeding scenarios where traditional tourniquets prove ineffective, establishing itself as a trusted provider of specialized medical manufacturing solutions.
