QuikClot Combat Gauze provides the ease of gauze but with an added clotting agent embedded within providing the power to stop even the worst arterial and venous bleeding. Based on a different mineral than zeolite-based QuikClot products, Combat Gauze generates no heat. It shares the benefit of being inert and non-allergenic.
To use, simply pack Combat Gauze dressing into the wound and apply pressure for 3-5 minutes. Even the most traumatic arterial and venous bleeding is stopped. QuikClot Combat Gauze is so pliable that it conforms to virtually any size or shape of injury. It is easily removed once clotting has taken place.
