Product Reviews of Quikclot Sport Brand Advanced Clotting Sponge ,Stop Bleeding Fast, 50 Gram Package
Product Review: Simply Unbelievable!! A Must For Any First Aid Kit!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to be honest, I had never heard of QuikClot before....well, that is until last summer when a buddy of mine did a serious wipe on his bike at Slickrock. I am not sure what happened as I didn't personally see it as he was in back of me however I did hear it and it sounded bad. When I got to him he seemed to be ok, except for a big gash on his left leg. It was like 3 inches long and it was pretty deep. To say it was bleeding profusely would be an understatement. Within just 45 or so seconds he had a large pool of blood forming under his leg. I went for my first aid kit and he immediately asked me if I had any QuikClot. I told him I didn't and that I had never heard of it. He said to grab his first aid kit instead, which I did. Sure enough I opened it up and there was the bag of QuickClot. I opened it, handed it to him and he immediately applied it to his leg. By the time we had his lag wrapped up the bleeding had already significantly slowed. I was absolutely blown away and had never seen anything like it. My friend then told me that he had been introduced to it in a similar way and now considers it a vital component to his first aid kit. Needless to say I have since made it a vital component for my first aid kit. It really has to be seen to be believed. Its hands down one of the best things you can have in an emergency first aid kit. Things like this can literally save lives and you dont have to have clotting problems to be able to benefit from a product like this.
Do yourself a favor and immediately add a package of QuikClot to your first aid kit. It like magic in a bag in regards to stopping bleeding. Its nothing short of ingenious and again should be mandatory in all first aid kits.
5 Stars!!!

I purchased this to add to my first aid kit that I keep in my car and to give two to my children for first aid kits in their cars.
I hope that I never have to use it. I purchased awhile back the original quickclot granuals that the military used for stopping blood loss from battlefield wounds. An EMT I talked to said that the newer version which is in a sponge doesn't create as much damage to flesh when used in an emergency. He also said that in a sever blood loss situation that is the least of the accident victims concerns. That conversation is why I purchased these. I still have the sealled granuals in my first aid kit, but this is what I will use first in a severe accident.
I hope that I never have to use them. The only negative (which is also a positive) is that there is a limit on the number that you can purchase because of high military demand for the product.
These can be lifesavers.
