(Health-NewsWire.Net, April 20, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- "Campers, hikers -- outdoorsmen in general are snapping these up," says First Aid Shoppe COO, Anna Loehwing. "It makes sense, as this is exactly the sort of kit you'd want with you when you're far away from help and doing things that can cause serious injury, but we've been surprised with how well the kit has been embraced by this target audience." Ms. Loehwing says the kit was intended for use in those sorts of environments. It comes equipped with items designed to treat serious injuries in the field, when help is far or until help can arrive.
"If you're 'getting away from it all' you need to be able to protect yourself," says Ms. Loehwing. "Not to mention the fact that people getting away tend, also, to be risk takers. These are the people that are going to climb cliffs, or trees, or bike difficult trails, or any other of a number of fun, exhilarating things that can, of course, lead to injury. Our ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit is made for just that. It's not a few bandaids and some wipes. This kit can save your life in a bleeding emergency."
The ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit includes:
1 Pair of Antiseptic Gloves - for protection of both patient and care giver. 4 Antiseptic Wipes - for wound cleaning and protection. 1 QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge - 3.5" x 3.5" Mesh Bag 25g 1 Sterile Gauze Pad 5" x 9" 1 Roll of Gauze Bandage 3" x 4.1 Yards 1 Roll of Medical Tape - for holding dressings in place. 1 Red Kit Bag, with easy-open zipper and heavy-duty locking hook for secure storage where you need it.
"The QuikClot is the heart of this lifesaving collection of items," says Ms. Loehwing. "It's an advanced clotting sponge approved for use by the military. With QuikClot you can stop heavy bleeding on the spot." Ms. Loehwing adds that the QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge promotes clotting within minutes from application and is safe, effective and easy to use.
"If you're doing anything outdoors or away from help, get one of these kits," says Ms. Loehwing. "They're small and easy to carry."
The ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit is available on Amazon.
