Current CoTCCC guidelines list QuikClot Combat Gauze (kaolin-based) and Celox Rapid or ChitoGauze Pro (chitosan-based) as recommended hemostatic gauze options. Both kaolin and chitosan mechanisms have distinct performance profiles — kaolin works via the intrinsic clotting cascade while chitosan forms a physical gel seal independent of coagulation factors, retaining efficacy in anticoagulated or hypothermic patients.

Per TCCC wound packing protocol: (1) Expose the wound fully and identify the bleeding source. (2) Pack the gauze directly into the wound cavity with your finger, pressing against the bleeding vessel — do not layer gauze on top of the wound. (3) Continue packing until the cavity is firmly filled with no residual space. (4) Apply firm, direct manual pressure for a minimum of three minutes (one minute for Celox Rapid). (5) Secure with an Israeli Bandage or pressure dressing. The key error to avoid is insufficient direct contact between the hemostatic agent and the bleeding vessel — superficial packing significantly reduces efficacy. Training through a TCCC or Stop the Bleed course is strongly recommended before field use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 style=\"font-size:18px;font-weight:700;color:#121212;margin:32px 0 12px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.04em;\"\u003eWhat Other Gauze Options Should IFAK Builders Consider?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 16px;font-size:15px;\"\u003eBeyond hemostatic gauze, a complete IFAK build may include \u003cstrong\u003ecompressed plain gauze rolls\u003c\/strong\u003e for general wound management and tourniquet site padding, \u003cstrong\u003epetrolatum gauze\u003c\/strong\u003e for occlusive wound dressings on burns or sucking chest wounds (in the absence of a dedicated chest seal), and \u003cstrong\u003eeye pad gauze\u003c\/strong\u003e for ocular trauma coverage.

QuikClot Combat Gauze (kaolin) is the most widely issued hemostatic gauze in U.S. military IFAKs and has the largest body of battlefield evidence. Celox Rapid and ChitoGauze (chitosan) are preferred when the casualty may be on anticoagulants, is hypothermic, or has impaired coagulation — chitosan works independently of the clotting cascade. If you are building one kit for a general population, Combat Gauze is the standard.

This is plain gauze; the TCCC skill standard for packing plain gauze is firm, uninterrupted manual pressure until hemorrhage is controlled — an endpoint, not a timer. Three minutes is a reasonable working floor and is not a stopping point. The legacy listing also carried a unit price in its specification table; price belongs on the buy button, not in a spec sheet, and has been removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border:1px solid #e3ddcf;border-radius:4px;margin:0 0 10px;background:#fff;overflow:hidden;\"\u003e\u003csummary style=\"cursor:pointer;padding:14px 16px;background:#faf7ef;border-left:4px solid #9c8f61;font-family:'Chakra Petch','Barlow',sans-serif;font-weight:700;font-size:15px;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:.03em;color:#121212;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"float:right;color:#5e573d;font-weight:700;\"\u003e▾\u003c\/span\u003eWho Carries It\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px 18px;font-size:14.5px;color:#3a3a36;text-align:justify;text-justify:inter-word;hyphens:auto;-webkit-hyphens:auto;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCombat medics and corpsmen\u003c\/strong\u003e packing junctional, axillary, groin, neck and deep extremity wounds a tourniquet cannot reach · \u003cstrong\u003eEMS and fire responders\u003c\/strong\u003e working protocol wound packing · \u003cstrong\u003eLaw enforcement and active-threat responders\u003c\/strong\u003e carrying penetrating-trauma packing capability in a patrol kit · \u003cstrong\u003eIFAK, Bleeding Control Kit and B-CON Kit builders\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the agencies, departments and school districts that resupply them · \u003cstrong\u003eTraining programmes\u003c\/strong\u003e that need realistic packing volume, using rolls kept separate from mission stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWound packing is a trained skill and gauze does not supply it. On an arterial or high-volume bleed, lead with a CoTCCC-recommended hemostatic dressing and use plain gauze behind it as overflow and reinforcement; plain gauze is not a substitute in that situation. Do not pack an open chest wound — penetrating thoracic trauma is managed with a chest seal — and evisceration has its own pathway. A deep junctional wound routinely consumes more than one roll, so stock in multiples rather than singly.

What the CoTCCC guidelines do address is the technique: Wound packing with gauze and direct pressure for hemorrhage a tourniquet cannot reach, with hemostatic gauze — QuikClot Combat Gauze, Celox, ChitoGauze PRO — recommended for life-threatening junctional bleeding. This product is the plain-gauze option, and the distinction between the two matters when you are deciding what to stock. Two timing figures appeared on the legacy page and are worth separating by source: 'maintain direct pressure for 3 minutes minimum after packing' was published as a best-practice note on the listing, not attributed to a manufacturer IFU or to a specific TCCC guideline paragraph, and it is reproduced here only as that unattributed note. Compression time in your protocol is what governs, and the CoTCCC-published compression times for hemostatic products differ from those for plain gauze — check the source you actually operate under rather than this page. Nothing here states an indication, a wound-selection rule or a packing technique; those are trained skills.

The width is the useful specification here — 4 in. Is the width most tactical medicine is built around, and it fits both an IFAK pouch and a full medic bag. Plain gauze can be used to pack a wound, as backing over a hemostatic dressing, as a conventional dressing over a laceration or abrasion, and to secure a splint.
