Tactical Hemostatic Gauzes

HEMOSTATICS

Hemostatic agents such as Celox, QuikClot, and HemCon, are strategically designed for rapid blood clotting in traumatic wounds, especially those involving arterial bleeding. Widely available to EMS professionals and first responders, these approved hemostatic gauze products cater to various training levels, proving indispensable in saving lives across diverse accident scenarios – from the battlefield to workplace, motor vehicle, and home incidents.

As the pioneering hemostatic agent adopted by the United States Military, QuikClot, specifically QuikClot Combat Gauze, remains a favored choice. However, advancements in chitosan-based products like Celox offer a safe and effective alternative. In specific situations, such as scalp evulsion, the preference for Celox granules arises due to their easy metabolism, eliminating the need for later removal associated with impregnated gauze products.
