What exactly are Tourniquets and Haemostatic Dressings?
Tourniquets are medical devices used to control severe bleeding by applying pressure to the limb. They are typically placed proximal to the injury site to restrict blood flow. Haemostatic dressings, on the other hand, are specialized dressings infused with agents that promote blood clotting. They are designed to accelerate the clotting process and aid in controlling bleeding. Both tourniquets and haemostatic dressings are important tools in first aid and emergency medical situations to stop excessive bleeding and improve the chances of survival before professional medical help arrives.

Community Bleed Kits
Public Access Bleed Control Kits are designed to provide immediate assistance in controlling severe bleeding during emergency situations. These kits are typically placed in public locations such as schools, airports, and government buildings, intended for use by trained individuals or first responders.
The contents of a Public Access Bleed Control Kit may vary but generally include essential items like tourniquets, gauze, bandages, and gloves. These tools are crucial for quickly and effectively managing bleeding until advanced medical treatment can be administered.
