QuikClot is the battle-proven hemostatic agent chosen by the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines to stop traumatic bleeding and save lives in the field. In a major study (Journal of Trauma, Vol. 64, No. 4, April 2008) of 103 cases of QuikClot used by military and first responders, the authors concluded that "QuikClot has been used effectively by a wide range of providers in the field and hospital to control hemorrhage." And, the COTCCC has voted to recommend Combat Gauze as "the first line treatment for life-threatening hemorrhage that is not amenable to tourniquet placement." So, whether you're on the battlefield, on the street, or in your home, QuikClot Stops Bleeding Cold.
