Blood loss from traumatic injury causes more than 50,000 deaths a year in the United States alone and we realize that First Responders � police, firefighters, EMT�s, and paramedics � are the first on the scene to these unforseen accidents and disasters. QuikClot products are the first to put live-saving technology in the hands of first responders, so that they can jump into action as soon as they arrive on the scene of a trauma and help save lives.
First used by the United States Military, QuikClot hemostasis products adressed a persistent need for a product that could stop severe bleeding rapidly, effectively, and safely. Having saved hundreds of lives on the battlefields since 2008, QuikClot kaolin products are the only choice of hemostatic agent for all branches of the US Military as deemed by the CoTCCC (Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care). This groundbreaking and life-saving product is now available to First Responders.
With QuikClot products, First Responders have the power to stop bleeding fast at the scene of an accident, keeping patients alive until they can be transported to the hospital or a trauma center.
QuikClot products are able to rapidly stop bleeding in a variety of situations:
- Motor Vehicle Accidents
- Workplace and At-Home Accident
- Gunshot, Knife, and Other Assault Wounds
