Description
Tactical Medicine involves responding to urgent and potentially life-threatening situations. The innovative Celox™ RAPID effectively fills the gap between the need for fast response and the current accepted method of treating bleeding. With its unprecedented speed, Celox RAPID revolutionizes the use of hemostatics in Tactical Field Care.
CELOX RAPID Hemostatic Wound Packing Gauze
- Fastest Acting Hemostatic Gauze: Stop severe arterial bleeding with just 60 seconds of compression.
- Rapid Action: Reduces blood loss quickly to save time in critical situations.
- Effective and Reliable: Independent testing shows significant reduction in blood loss compared to other products.
- Recommended by CoTCCC: Approved for military-wide use by US Department of Defense's Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care.
- Proven Results: Highest observed survival rate in US Navy tests, making it a trusted choice for officers and the public.
- Versatile and Safe: Works effectively in various scenarios, including treating casualties on the battlefield and in civilian emergencies.
- Self-Reliance in Remote Settings: Ideal for occupations with increased risk or when hours away from medical care, ensuring readiness for serious injuries.
Evidence & Training Rationale
Celox™ Rapid uses chitosan to promote hemostasis and is used as hemostatic gauze aligned with TCCC for compressible hemorrhage, particularly junctional wounds.
- Mechanism: Chitosan forms a robust gel-like clot independent of normal clotting cascade.
- Efficacy: Model and field data show faster hemostasis vs. plain gauze when properly packed and held.
- Guideline use: Pack to bleeding source, apply firm pressure (typically ≥3 min), secure with compression.
- Training: Expose, locate source, layer pack, maintain pressure, reassess and document.
Training rationale: Technique-dependent success—accurate packing and sustained pressure are critical.

Can't go wrong with Celox, it'll save your life. Better then QuickClot because Celox works on people with blood thinners where as QuickClot does not. Average price for this product.Show more
