Hemostatic gauze is the primary treatment for severe extremity and junctional bleeding that cannot be controlled by a tourniquet alone. All QuikClot products are impregnated with kaolin — a naturally occurring mineral that activates the body's clotting cascade on contact, clotting blood up to five times faster than standard gauze. Kaolin is non-allergenic and non-exothermic, making it safe for wound packing. These products are carried by U.S. military combat medics and are recommended for all serious trauma kits.
QuikClot / Z-Medica — Hemostatic Gauze
QuikClot Combat Gauze
3 in. x 4 yds. — Kaolin Hemostatic — Z-Fold — X-Ray Indicator — by Z-Medica
$46.00
QuikClot Combat Gauze is the gold standard in battlefield hemostatic gauze and is carried in the Individual First Aid Kits of every U.S. combat soldier. The sterile, Z-folded gauze is impregnated with kaolin — an inorganic mineral that activates Factor XII, accelerating the body's natural clotting cascade and clotting blood up to five times faster than standard gauze. Kaolin is non-allergenic, non-exothermic, and fully inert — it creates a robust clot without generating heat. The Z-fold design allows for rapid one-handed packing of deep wounds. An X-ray detectable indicator is woven into the gauze for post-treatment imaging. Tear tabs on the packaging enable fast, glove-compatible deployment.

A penetrating chest wound — from a gunshot, stab, or fragment — creates an opening through which air enters the chest cavity, collapsing the lung (open pneumothorax). Left untreated, this can progress to a tension pneumothorax — the second leading cause of preventable death on the battlefield. A chest seal is the immediate treatment: an occlusive dressing applied over the wound to seal the opening and restore normal respiratory mechanics. HyFin Vent and Halo seals are the current standard of care in tactical medicine.
North American Rescue — Chest Seal
HyFin Vent Chest Seal — Twin Pack
3-Vented Channels — Individually Packaged — Entry & Exit Wound Treatment — TCCC Compliant
$19.00
The HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack from North American Rescue sets the standard for pneumothorax management. Two individually packaged seals — one for the entry wound, one for the exit wound — each featuring three vented channels that prevent airflow into the chest cavity during inhalation while allowing air and blood to escape during exhalation. Even if two of the three channels become obstructed, the vent remains operational — a critical fail-safe in field conditions. Advanced adhesive gel technology maintains a superior seal through blood, sweat, body hair, and extreme environments. Each seal includes a gauze pad to wipe the wound prior to application. Large red pull tab for single-step peel-and-apply. Transparent backing for accurate wound placement. Meets TCCC and EMS standards of care.
