The Ministry of Defence has ordered its first consignment of Celox Rapid, having made the decision to switch to this latest generation of life-saving haemostat at the end of last year. .

Blood loss is the largest cause of preventable death both on the battlefield and in civilian trauma, and as a result, haemostats are increasingly being carried by military medics and civilian emergency responders alike. Celox Rapid, manufactured in the UK, is the global leader in this technology, which is based on Chitosan, and can stop life threatening arterial bleeding in under 60 seconds.
Since 2006 when Celox granules were first introduced, Celox trauma products have been used to save the lives of soldiers and civilians alike. In 2008, the third generation haemostat Celox Gauze became the UK MoD product of choice and was used to save lives in the recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now Celox Rapid Gauze takes over as product of choice and will be used on the front line by all branches of the armed forces.

Time is critical when treating severe injuries in the field and saving time increases the chance of survival for the casualty in an emergency or hostile situation. To be effective in real use, haemostatic dressings need to work fast.

The current generation of haemostatic agents need at least 3 minutes of compression to work. Celox RAPID Gauze removes the delay by speeding up packing time10 and reducing compression time to just 60 seconds while using the proven haemostat technology of Celox. In recent tests Celox Rapid demonstrated successfully in laboratory coagulopathic bleeding[2
Independent testing9 on Celox RAPID has shown the product works on lethal injuries and significantly reduces blood loss compared to Quikclot Gauze*. As well as reducing treatment time and blood loss, a model of tactical evacuation showed that the Celox RAPID Gauze stayed in place during transport with no re-bleeding10.
