IS A POWERFUL
BUSINESS PROPOSITION

QuikClot^® hemostatic devices can help patients survive traumatic blood loss.

The unpredictable nature of patient care requires a reliable way to achieve hemostasis.

You cannot predict a bleeding event, but you can prepare for one.

Life is unpredictable – a bleeding injury can occur without warning and the ability to quickly control blood loss can make all the difference.

QuikClot^® EMS hemostatic devices are a life-saving technology that every first responder needs.

Trauma is a major cause of death and disability and the second most expensive healthcare problem in the United States. Approximately 40% of trauma-related deaths are due to bleeding or its consequences, establishing hemorrhage as the most common cause of preventable death in trauma.¹
