Why This Matters

Hemorrhage is the leading cause of preventable death in trauma. For wounds where a tourniquet cannot be applied — the armpit groin neck and torso — hemostatic gauze packed directly into the wound is the only effective treatment. QuikClot accelerates clotting dramatically reducing the blood loss that kills in minutes.

Product Description

QuikClot Hemostatic Gauze is impregnated with kaolin, a naturally occurring mineral that dramatically accelerates the body's clotting process. It's used by military medics, first responders, and emergency departments worldwide to control severe bleeding from wounds where tourniquets cannot be applied—neck, groin, armpit. Pack the wound, apply pressure for 3 minutes, and maintain. Sterile, vacuum-sealed, and shelf-stable for years. An essential advanced trauma supply.

Real Use Case

A construction accident produces a deep puncture wound to the inner thigh near the groin — too high for a tourniquet. You pack QuikClot hemostatic gauze directly into the wound applying firm pressure for 3 minutes. Bleeding slows dramatically. The casualty remains stable until EMS arrives 11 minutes later.
