New Gauze?

[cvfd_emt]

Recently I heard about some new gauze, and I am wondering if anyone has tried it yet or seen it used in the field. The stuff is called HemoStatic gauze. I sound really stupid about the subject, but I just heard about it the other day. Here's a link to the one site, I'm going to check it out! IF anyone has any information about acutal use, let me know! Thanks.

I hadn't heard anything either. It looks like it would be interesting. I wonder how well it works, especially at stopping arterial bleeds. Anyone???Anyone???

The product is called BloodStop, it is a hemostatic gauze used in controlling bleeds. For further information go to Yahoo and type in Hemostatic gauze, The information you request will magically appear. I have never used it, I have trouble with opening bandaids, so we can't get too technicnal. I have heard of the product but just passed it off with some other trivia. If I butted in on a private conversation, I apologize!!!!!!:lol:
