First Aid Shoppe, providers of top tier first aid and survival kits and specialized first aid and survival gear, announced today that their top selling ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-T Tourniquet now features an update clotting sponge. According to First Aid Shoppe COO, Anna Loehwing, this sponge will be included in the kit along with the SWAT-T Tourniquet. The ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-T Tourniquet is a compact, special purpose kit containing items specially suited to stoppinig serious bleeding at the scene of an injury.
"There are two key elements to this kit," says Ms. Loehwing. "And that's the combat tourniquet and the clotting sponge. We've got an amazing sponge in there now, and it uses a battle tested compound which accelerates the body's natural clotting action and acts to stop up a serious wound fast."
The QuikClot brand clotting sponge featured in the kit uses the same revolutionary advanced blood clotting agent used by paramedics, hospitals, police and first responders. It is applied directly to the wound to stimulate rapid clotting within minutes of contact. SWAT-T is a compression bandage (Stretch Wrap And Tuck) and quick-use tourniquet that can be clamped high in the armpit or groin area to stem or stop arterial bleeding. Between these two items the ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-T Tourniquet contains a solution for most all forms of major bleeding that might be encountered at the scene of an accident.
"The kit is small and extremely effective," says Ms. Loehwing. "The whole idea here is that you have exactly what you need to stabilize a victim and stop the bleeding. At least long enough to get the help you need."
The ResQue 1st Trauma Kit With SWAT-T Tourniquet by First Aid Shoppe is available on Amazon.
