(Health-NewsWire.Net, April 11, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- "We tell people this isn't an average first aid kit," says First Aid & Safety COO, Anna Loehwing. "Not just some band-aids and some a little bactine, like you might keep under the sink. This is a first aid kit for serious injuries. We're finding that people who engage in extreme sports and similar activities are getting these kits to have with them when they're out engaged in these activities with high potential for injury. We made the kit small and easy to carry, yet packed it with everything you need to handle serious trauma."
First Aid & Safety reports that the QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge, now part of their best-selling first aid kit, is a battle tested clotting agent approved for use by the DoD (Department of Defense). QuikClot is made using an inert mineral called zeolite. The QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge single-use mesh pouch stops serious bleeding. "This is what you want when injuries occur far from medical facilities," says Ms. Loehwing. "Use this to stabilize the victim, or yourself, until help arrives, and/or or you can transport to the appropriate care facility." Ms. Loehwing says QuikClot promotes clotting within minutes from application and is safe and easy to use. QuikClot is used extensively in the fields of Healthcare, Law Enforcement, the Military, Special Operations units and so forth. Anywhere quick stabilization of injuries is needed. "QuikClot is the only hemostatic agent recommended by the Department of Defense," says Ms. Loehwing. "It's used by all branches of the U.S. Military for severe hemorrhaging at the scene. In fact QuikClot is credited every year with helping thousands of people survive traumatic blood loss."
The Emergency Trauma Kit comes with:
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 SWAT-T Stretch-Wrap-And-Tuck Tourniquet 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 Kit Bag, with easy-open zipper and heavy-duty locking hook.
"If you're an extreme sports enthusiast or outdoorsman, you need to have one of these kits," says Ms. Loehwing. "It could be the thing that saves your life."
The new QuikClot Trauma Kit by First Aid & Safety is now available on Amazon.
