(Health-NewsWire.Net, April 20, 2015 ) Clearwater, Florida -- Clearwater based First Aid Shoppe, makers of first aid and extreme injury products, has announced that their ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-Tourniquet advanced kit is being recommended for extreme sports enthusiasts by professionals in the field.
"We're hearing from the pros and they're saying get this kit," says First Aid Shoppe COO, Anna Loehwing. "If you're out and involved with any sort of high-risk activity, such as your average so-called 'extreme sport', you need a way to protect yourself or possibly even save your life -- or another's." The ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-Tourniquet is intended to give the user a way to respond to and treat serious-bleeding and life-threatening injuries at the scene, stabilizing the victim until help can be sought or until help arrives.
"After breathing blood loss is your biggest concern," says Ms. Loehwing. "Bones can be set, other things can wait, but if you're bleeding you don't have much time. We've included two of the industry's leading products for stopping severe bleeding." The ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-Tourniquet includes the QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge, and the SWAT-Tourniquet. The QuikClot Sponge is approved for use by the military and employed by all four branches. It contains and advanced hemostatic (clotting) agent that stops bleeding at point of application. The SWAT (Stretch Wrap And Tuck) Tourniquet can be placed high in the groin or armpit areas and stops arterial bleeding.
"With these two items alone you can handle just about any major bleeding," says Ms. Loehwing. "The kit is small and easy to carry. I recommend anyone have one of these who's out engaged in extreme activities."
The ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-Tourniquet is available on Amazon.
