(Health-NewsWire.Net, October 06, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- Today Anna Loehwing, COO of First Aid Shoppe, reported that the hemostatic (clotting) agent in the QuikClot Emergency Clotting Sponge, the central component of their ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit, is recommended for use by the US Department of Defense for all branches of the Military. QuikClot is an emergency wound dressing with a hemostatic active agent that accelerates the natural coagulation process immediately upon application to the wound. This combat dressing is used by the US Military to treat battlefield hemorrhaging for fast stabilization of injuries in the field.
"This is a great little kit to have on hand," says Ms. Loehwing. "The Military uses this same agent to treat serious bleeding injuries for rapid stabilization on the scene. Our ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit is intended for this same purpose. Keep it with your other first aid gear and be ready for a serious bleeding emergency."
The ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit comes with items to treat a bleeding emergency and stabilize the victim until more professional help can be reached. The kit includes the QuikClot Emergency Clotting Sponge, as well as antiseptic gloves and wipes, along with bandages, gauze and medical tape. This combination of items is designed to manage and stop a serious bleeding injury.
"Most first aid kits are intended for more general injuries, not life threatening trauma," says Ms. Loehwing. "Our ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit fills that gap. The kit is compact, and easy to keep either with your existing gear, or in the glove box, in the car or anywhere else convenient for when an emergency might strike."
The ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit by First Aid Shoppe, with the QuikClot Emergency Clotting Sponge, is available on Amazon.
