More about this category

Unlike a regular sterile dressing, hemostatic supplies complement mechanical pressure and help achieve hemostasis, thus allowing for the control of severe bleeding when direct pressure alone is insufficient – especially in deep wounds or in the groin, armpit, and neck areas where a tourniquet cannot be applied. Hemostatic supplies are widely used in emergency medical services, military, law enforcement, rescue services, and civilian first aid when it is necessary to control life-threatening bleeding as quickly as possible. They are an important part of tactical medicine, individual first aid kits (IFAK), hunting, and shooting sports equipment.

Frequently asked questions (4)

How do hemostatic devices work?

Hemostatic agents help achieve hemostasis faster and, together with appropriate direct pressure, increase the effectiveness of bleeding control.

When to use a hemostatic dressing?

In cases of severe bleeding that cannot be controlled by direct pressure alone, especially in deep wounds or where a tourniquet cannot be applied.

How does a hemostatic dressing differ from a regular one?

A standard sterile bandage stops bleeding by applying pressure and absorbs blood, while a hemostatic one additionally helps achieve hemostasis, making it more effective in case of severe bleeding.

Can hemostatic devices be used by non-professionals?

Some of the tools are intended for prepared individuals, but training is recommended, and use must be according to instructions.
