Sponges and gauze are applied directly to the wound.
QuikClot hemostatic agent is a molecular sieve, sifting molecules by size.
When QuikClot comes into contact with blood in and around a wound, it rapidly takes in the smaller water molecules from the blood.
The larger platelet and clotting factor molecules remain in the wound in a highly concentrated form. This promotes extremely rapid natural clotting and prevents severe blood loss.

When dealing with large, severe injuries on the battlefield or at elsewhere, a few seconds can mean the difference between losing a limb – or losing a life. When time is critical, rip open a packet of QuickClot ACS+™, pack the self-contained sponge into the wound and the bleeding stops rapidly. The sponge can be packed to conform to the shape of the wound and is easily removed in the hospital setting.
PART NUMBER: QC-ACS+
As a result of intensive research and development, the formulation of ACS+ has been re-engineered to stay cooler on contact. It has a greatly reduced exothermic reaction, with maximum temperatures in vivo typically at 105 degrees F. This cooler formulation was developed in conjunction with the U.S. Marines, with applications beyond the military.
