Celox™ Rapid Hemostatic Gauze

The Fastest-Acting Hemostatic Gauze for Severe Bleeding Control

Celox™ Rapid Hemostatic Gauze is a next-generation trauma dressing designed to stop severe bleeding in just 60 seconds. Engineered for EMS, military medics, tactical responders, and high-risk emergency environments, Celox Rapid provides unmatched speed and reliability — even in the most challenging situations.

What Is Celox Rapid?

Celox Rapid is a Z-folded, chitosan-impregnated hemostatic gauze that delivers the fastest proven hemorrhage control in the Celox product family. Its patented technology allows responders to pack deep wounds quickly, ensuring rapid clot formation and improved survival in life-threatening bleeds.

It is optimized for:

• Severe arterial bleeding

• High-pressure hemorrhage

• Gunshot wounds

• Stab wounds

• Blast injuries

• Major trauma in remote or tactical environments

Key Benefits

• Stops bleeding in as fast as 60 seconds

• Requires only 1 minute of compression (vs. 3 minutes for standard gauze)

• Highly absorbent — locks in blood and forms a stable, durable clot

• Proven effectiveness on patients taking blood thinners

• Effective in cold, wet, and contaminated conditions

• Non-exothermic — does not burn or damage tissue

• Z-fold design for rapid, tangle-free deployment

• Lightweight and vacuum-packed for tactical and EMS kits

• Low training burden, easy to use even under stress

How It Works

Celox Rapid uses advanced chitosan granule technology bonded to the surface of the gauze.
When applied into the wound with pressure, it:

1. Rapidly absorbs blood

2. Forms a robust gel-like clot

3. Seals the wound and stops bleeding independently of the patient’s clotting ability

This makes it extremely effective for:

• Anticoagulated patients

• Hypothermic casualties

• Shock and low-pressure situations

Indications for Use

Celox Rapid is ideal for controlling:

• Severe external hemorrhage

• Junctional wounds (groin, axilla)

• Penetrating trauma

• Arterial bleeds

• Mass-casualty scenarios

• Pre-hospital combat and tactical care

• Remote medical operations

Used by:

• Military forces worldwide

• Police, SWAT, and tactical units

• EMS/paramedics

• Search & rescue teams

• Industrial and remote medical responders

How to Use Celox Rapid

1. Open the vacuum-sealed package.

2. Pack the gauze firmly into the wound cavity.

3. Apply direct pressure for 60 seconds (longer for severe arterial bleeding).

4. Secure with a pressure bandage.

5. Leave in place until surgical removal.
