Gauze

QuikClot Combat Gauze is an advanced hemostatic agent widely used by military professionals, first responders, and emergency medical teams to control severe bleeding in trauma patients. Its unique formulation promotes rapid clotting, quickly stopping blood loss and stabilising patients for further treatment.

The QuikClot Combat Gauze is a sterile, 3 in. x 4 yds. (7.5 cm x 3.7 m) Z-folded, nonwoven gauze impregnated with kaolin, an inorganic mineral that activates Factor XII, which accelerates the body's natural clotting ability. This bleeding control solution creates a robust clot to stop bleeding fast, potentially giving you more time to attend to other tasks as you move patients through the continuum of care.

QuikClot Combat Gauze is effective on severe bleeding, including gunshot wounds, stabbings, and large non-compressible injuries where tourniquets cannot be applied.
