What is a bleed control kit used for?
Bleed control kits are designed to manage life-threatening bleeding in the first minutes after an injury. They contain specialist equipment such as tourniquets and haemostatic gauze to help responders stop blood loss quickly before Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrive.
What is the difference between the CELOX kit and the standard Bleed Control Kit with Tourniquets?
The CELOX Bleed Control and Emergency Trauma Kit includes Celox Rapid haemostatic gauze, an SOF Tactical Tourniquet, and a Russell Chest Seal™. These components provide enhanced support for severe bleeding and major trauma. The Bleed Control Kit with Tourniquets contains core equipment for controlling catastrophic external bleeding, including trauma dressings, tourniquets, and CPR face shields. Both kits are designed for immediate response, CELOX offers extended capability where risk levels are higher.
Where should bleed control kits be stored?
Bleed control kits must be placed in highly visible, easily accessible locations to support rapid response. Positioning them alongside defibrillators ensures consistency in emergency planning and increases public awareness. Securely mounted storage is essential to protect against weather, damage, or tampering, particularly in outdoor or unsupervised areas.
