What is the proper pressure of a tourniquet in phlebotomy?
In phlebotomy, the tourniquet should be tight enough to obstruct venous outflow, but not tight enough to obstruct arterial flow. Anything less than the systolic blood pressure is ok (i.e. will not obstruct arterial blood flow), but typically much less pressure is needed as veins are a low pressure system.

How many times is the windless rod turned on the Combat Application Tourniquet CAT?

How do you apply torniquet on infected wound?
You don't. A tourniquet is a really tight fitting band intended to compress tissue and vessels to the point where there's no blood flowing past the tourniquet. It's useful to stop heavy bleeding, but doesn't do any good at all for an infection. As the goal of a tourniquet is to stop all blood flow, it will also begin to starve the healthy tissue "downstream" of the tourniquet of blood, which will lead to further damage fairly fast. Only use them when there's really no other option.
