The categories in trauma and bleeding control

The range is divided by what the injury requires. Tourniquets are used for severe bleeding from an arm or leg. Wound packing with gauze and haemostatic dressings belongs where a tourniquet cannot be used — groin, shoulder, neck and torso. Chest seals cover penetrating injuries to the chest. Splints and immobilisation deal with fractures, suspected spinal injury and whatever has to be carried or transported. On top of that there is wound care for what is not life-threatening, and hypothermia protection, because cooling impairs the blood's ability to clot and is a risk in its own right in trauma.

The brands in the range

  • North American Rescue — CAT Combat Application Tourniquet Gen 7 in black and orange, HyFin chest seals, suction equipment and blue training versions for instruction.
  • SAM Medical — SAM XT Extremity Tourniquet, SAM Chest Seal in vented and non-vented versions, ChitoSAM chitosan dressings, SAM Pelvic Sling II and the full SAM Splint range.
  • QuikClot — Combat Gauze with kaolin, plus a blue trainer for practice without using up live stock.
  • H&H Medical — SWAT-T, which works both as a tourniquet and as a pressure bandage, and Hyvent vented chest seals.
  • Tactical Medical Solutions — Olaes modular bandages in four and six inch, Control Wrap pressure bandages with a bar, and BLAST bandages.
  • Faretec, Prometheus Medical, Precision and Vitri — gauze, thoracic dressings, pelvic binders and pressure bandages that round out the range.

Who the equipment is for

  • Military and Home Guard putting together personal first aid kits.
  • Police, security officers and fire and rescue services with a bleeding control kit on the belt or in the vehicle.
  • Workplaces with cutting, machinery or saw hazards — industry, workshops, forestry and agriculture.
  • Hunters, shooters and outdoor enthusiasts where the distance to medical care is measured in hours.
  • Instructors and trainers who need training equipment in class sets.

How to put a kit together

Start with the bleeding and work outwards. A tourniquet covers arms and legs, haemostatic dressings and pressure bandages deal with injuries that are too close to the torso to be constricted, and a couple of chest seals belong in every kit meant to handle penetrating trauma — buy two, so that both the entry and the exit wound are covered.

Choose equipment that can be used with one hand. CAT Gen 7 and SAM XT are built for that, which is the whole point on the day the injury is on your own arm. Add gloves, sturdy shears and something to keep the casualty warm, and carry the kit in a pouch that can be reached without opening the bag.

The equipment does not replace training. What decides the outcome is that it is on your body, that it can be found in the dark and that the person carrying it has practised with it — which is why the range includes trainer versions of the tourniquet, gauze and chest seal.

Frequently asked questions about trauma and bleeding control

What is the difference between CAT Gen 7, SAM XT and SWAT-T?

CAT Gen 7 is the most widely used windlass tourniquet and is used extensively in both military and civilian trauma care. SAM XT has a tensioning mechanism that locks the strap before you start turning the windlass. SWAT-T is a wide elastic band without a windlass that can also be used as a pressure bandage and on smaller limbs.

When are haemostatic dressings used instead of a tourniquet?

Haemostatic dressings belong where a tourniquet cannot be used — groin, shoulder, neck and torso — and are used together with pressure on the wound. A tourniquet only works on an arm or leg, where the entire limb can be constricted above the injury.

What is the difference between kaolin and chitosan dressings?

Kaolin, as in QuikClot Combat Gauze, activates the body's own coagulation cascade. Chitosan, as in ChitoSAM, adheres to the tissue and forms a clot in a way that is less dependent on the patient's own clotting ability — a difference that matters in someone taking blood-thinning medication.

Why are blue tourniquets and blue gauze sold?

The blue versions are training equipment. They look and feel like the live product but are intended to be used again and again in training, so that the real dressings stay untouched in the kit. The colour means training equipment cannot be mistaken for live kit.

What should a personal bleeding control kit contain?

A tourniquet, a haemostatic dressing or gauze, a pressure bandage, a couple of chest seals, gloves and shears that can cut through clothing. It fits in a belt pouch. A rescue blanket belongs too if you spend time outdoors, and a splint if you travel far from roads.
