PRODUCT INFORMATION

North American Rescue · Lay-Responder Bleeding Control

Individual Aid Kit

A deliberately simple five-item bleeding control kit for the caregiver with no medical training: compressed gauze, a Flat ETD™, petrolatum gauze, tape and gloves. Vacuum-sealed, so a facility manager can verify a staged kit's contents at a glance without opening it. 5.75 × 3.5 × 2 in. and 6.6 oz. It contains no tourniquet — see below. NAR 85-0404.

A kit an untrained bystander will actually open beats a kit they are afraid to open. Simplicity here is a design decision, not a cost saving.

Kit Contents

One configuration, five items. The section below lists everything in the pouch with the job each item does. Read the note about the missing tourniquet before staging these on their own. Tap the section.

No component in this kit is a CoTCCC-recommended item; the loadout is pressure and packing only. For limb-threatening arterial hemorrhage a tourniquet is essential and this kit does not contain one — stage it only where a tourniquet is held separately, or alongside a tourniquet-equipped kit.

▾Who Carries It

Schools and workplaces staging lay-responder kits at multiple points, where the vacuum seal makes routine inspection a visual check rather than an unpacking job · Community spaces running public-access bleeding control · Home, vehicle and go-bag basics, at a size that actually travels.

Wound packing and direct pressure are lay-responder skills taught in a short course. The one thing this kit cannot do is control an arterial limb bleed — that needs a tourniquet, and if your risk assessment includes that scenario, this kit is not sufficient on its own.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is the NAR Individual Aid Kit CoTCCC-recommended?

The IAK is designed for lay-responder use and does not carry individual CoTCCC-recommended devices. However, the Flat ETD and compressed gauze included are NAR products used across CoTCCC-aligned kits. CoTCCC recommendations apply to military combat-casualty protocols; this kit targets public-access civilian bleeding control.

Does the kit require any training to use?

No formal training is required. The five items — compressed gauze, Flat ETD, petrolatum gauze, surgical tape, and gloves — are chosen specifically for ease of use under stress by an untrained bystander. NAR's Just-In-Time instructions are designed to guide use in the moment.

Is this kit HSA/FSA eligible?

Yes. The Individual Aid Kit carries HSA/FSA compliance, making it eligible for purchase through health savings accounts.

What does the vacuum seal protect against?

The vacuum seal protects contents from moisture and environmental contamination, extends shelf life, and provides a visual inspection method — an intact seal confirms the kit is unused and the contents remain dry without opening the packaging.

What is the NAR SKU for this kit?

The Individual Aid Kit carries NAR SKU 85-0404. It is a single-SKU, single-configuration product — no variants.
