Abstract
A system and method for rapidly accessing a tourniquet located in a pouch with a pull-away cover includes a tear-away cover. The tourniquet holder allows users to safely store in a fabric pouch a prepared tourniquet that is quickly accessible and coupled to a removable cover of the pouch. Users are able to fold the tourniquet in a manner that allows the tourniquet to be removed from the pouch and used nearly instantaneously.
