Celox™ Haemostatic Gauze 5ft Z-Fold

Product description

Proven Battlefield and Clinical Efficacy

Celox™ Haemostatic Gauze is to be used by trained emergency responders in the pre-hospital setting for temporary treatment of emergency life-threatening bleeding. It's a highly effective haemostatic dressing that has been rigorously tested in both battlefield conditions and clinical settings. Its performance has been validated by the US military in extensive testing, where it demonstrated the highest survival rates, minimal blood loss, and superior haemostasis among competing products. This gauze was tested using the Department of Defense's severe arterial haemorrhage model, confirming its reliability in critical situations.

Superior Haemorrhage Control in Real-World Scenarios

In real-world applications, Celox™ Haemostatic Gauze has consistently proven its effectiveness. A report from Afghanistan highlighted 21 cases involving severe gunshot wounds, where Celox™ was crucial in controlling life-threatening bleeding, even in patients with tourniquets in place. In 18 of these cases, bleeding was stopped within a minute, showcasing its rapid action in critical scenarios. Moreover, Celox™ was shown to prevent re-bleeding up to 24 hours after initial application.

Advanced Haemostatic Technology

Celox™ Haemostatic Gauze works by forming a robust clot through a reaction between red blood cells and the Celox™ agent. This clotting action occurs swiftly, making it highly effective in controlling major arterial bleeding without the need for cautery. The product's haemostatic agent creates a gelled mass that safeguards the wound and can be easily removed through irrigation after use.
