What It Is
Cardiac arrest and life-threatening hemorrhage are the two most time-critical emergencies requiring bystander intervention. AED cabinets address cardiac arrest — but in many mass-casualty incidents, active-shooter events, and trauma emergencies, life-threatening hemorrhage kills first. Staging a hemorrhage-control kit alongside an AED in the same cabinet creates a comprehensive public-safety station that addresses both threats.
This kit is engineered for that application. It contains the minimum necessary components for effective bystander hemorrhage control: the SOF® Tourniquet (CoTCCC-recommended, designed for one-handed self-application), a Compact Trauma Bandage® for wound coverage and pressure, compressed gauze for wound packing where a tourniquet does not apply, and a pair of nitrile gloves for rescuer protection.
The entire kit is sealed in a resealable waterproof pouch that maintains component protection. The compact form factor fits inside standard AED wall cabinets alongside common AED models without requiring a separate storage solution. Note: AED cabinet is not included with this kit.

- Corporate safety directors — meets OSHA General Duty requirements for trauma preparedness alongside AED programs without requiring a separate cabinet.
- School and university safety coordinators — stages alongside AED units in hallways, gymnasiums, and common areas for active-threat or accidental trauma response.
- Event venue and arena managers — compact kit fits inside AED cabinets already installed at venue stations without modification.

Stop the Bleed® AED Kit vs. Standard AED Cabinet Add-ons
- Purpose-designed fit: form factor engineered to stage inside standard ZOLL and Philips AED cabinet enclosures — not a generic kit forced into a cabinet.
- CoTCCC-recommended tourniquet: SOF® Tourniquet vs. generic windlass copies often bundled with competing AED add-on kits.
- Component minimalism: curated four-item set (tourniquet, trauma bandage, gauze, gloves) covers the primary hemorrhage control needs without cluttering the cabinet space.
- Manufacturer provenance: all TacMed-manufactured or TacMed-validated components; no mixed third-party sourcing uncertainty.
- Resealable waterproof pouch: maintains component protection inside the cabinet; competing add-on kits often use open organizers subject to dust and humidity.
Q: Will the Stop the Bleed® AED Kit fit inside a standard AED wall cabinet?
A: Yes. The kit is packaged in a compact resealable waterproof pouch sized to fit inside standard AED cabinet enclosures alongside common AED units. Compatible configurations include ZOLL and Philips cabinet models. The AED wall cabinet itself is not included — kit only.
Q: Is a tourniquet really necessary in an AED cabinet setting?
A: Cardiac arrest and life-threatening hemorrhage are the two most time-critical emergencies requiring bystander response. In active-shooter events, mass-casualty incidents, and severe accidental trauma, hemorrhage is frequently the primary cause of preventable death. Pairing a hemorrhage control kit with an AED cabinet addresses both threats from a single public-access location.
