I am a 76 y/o woman, on a blood thinner, who recently cut my thumb in the kitchen. The cut was a dime-sized flap, probably 65% thru, deep into the flesh. It bled and bled and bled despite holding pressure. I heard about a “home remedy” technique & tried it. Took a tea bag and wet it with 1 or 2 tsp of water, and held that against the cut. It did not completely stop the bleeding, but markedly slowed the rate. (I then had it treated at an urgent care office.) I understand this video is concerned with serious bleeding, out in the field, but this is a practical bit of info to use at home. Please don’t anyone criticize me for sharing it. 😊
I have 10 dry trainers, 2 wet trainers, 2 tourniquet trainers and 1 inguinal trainer! I love my @trueclot trainers! Ron and Brad have been really helpful and supportive!
Not really "for free" as I'm sure he's monetized by TH-cam and making money. With that said, he deserves every penny made on this channel, his content is outstanding!
Thank you for the amazing review! We really appreciate your honesty and the details you included. We love feedback as it helps us design and improve our trainers. We will have the bulk gauze for sale later this year as well as some updates to our concentrate packaging and a new task trainer as well. Thanks again!
I work Fire/EMS at agencies in Story and Marshall counties back from Iowa if you remember that state 😂 I have watched your videos from when you first started and love all of the informative reviews and lessons. It’s amazing to see how far you have gone in your career. Stay safe out there!
As someone who is a training technician, who purchases and maintains part-task trainers like these, your video has been really insightful! I reccomend anyone looking into purchasing items like these to speak to your local agencies and training providers, as they'll know what these products are like after a few hundred uses, and I've had my fair share of products fall apart very quickly. Also, there's a lot of DIY options coming about nowadays, whatever your budget is, I assure you there's options out there.
For the Stop-the-bleed class and even tc3 such wound packing mannequins are number one that you need to get. Everything else can be pretty done on buddies. Of course quality matters, but in times of big number of militarymen to be taught - even improvised yoga blocks with cuts were used.
If you are by yourself maybe the blood delivery flask should maybe be fitted with a pump that can push air into the bottle to pressure the blood out, and the bottle should maybe be made so it can stand by itself and blood can flow out, like a flat cap it can stand on if you turn it upside down. But I guess you can attach any bottle or pump to the hose if you want to
A tourniquet and Zpac has helped me keep two civis alive after major accident in Va since 2013!!! This is legit knowledge that certainly needs practice! 🇺🇸🏴
Man, phenomenal vid and review on some great products. JUST a ‘civi’ and no ‘EMT’, etc but around firearms virtually everyday..and THIS peaks my interest if only for personal knowledge AND FAMILY usage. Thanks!
Very informative stuff! I always thought you were supposed to stuff a tampon/gauze in the wound and do CPR to keep it from clotting and the heart pumping
We all need these skills. We need, as a country, to have some sort of training mandatory for citizens for every type of situation that could happen in the modern era.
I got the chance to test one out during a job fare for my school, paramedics had an ambulance and some of these setup and it was sort of a competition to see who could pack the fastest, was really fun and sort of cemented my determination to go into that sort of field, even though i lost
Doing it right is more important than doing it fast 😉 it's not a career for everyone but I believe that everyone should at least give it a try. It teaches you a lot about the world
I met Ron at SHOT show, excellent product. Great training tool, and the people backing it are amazing! Even did a short demonstration for my video! Lol can't say enough about em
I’ve watched several of your videos and you do an excellent job. I was wondering if you have done any videos on putting together a medium sized medical kit for using on yourself. Items that realistically a person can use on themselves for any medical situation whether that be an illness, auto accident, burn, sports injury, gun shots and so on. I’ve seen your car bags, emt go bags, but there arer lots of items that are easy to use on other people but not so much on yourself. Just trying to put together a kit that has minimal waisted items that don’t need.
About an hour ago I asked under your newest video for a "tutorial" on assessment of order of actions in a real sh*t-hit-the-fan situation so now I'm, obviously, rewatching all your individual videos on how to train treating serious wounds. 😆 I already have a question here: do you really feel where the blood is coming from in nitrile or latex gloves? How come?
I got a blue trainer tourniquet when I bought my stop the bleed kit and find it so helpful training with, especially if I need to apply it to myself in real life. Harder to do 1 handed.
Thank you Prep Medic for that quality video I do have an issue with the true clot "part of meat" , looks like the blood doesn't flow fast enough and I have to press the bottle like crazy to have an outcome, did I miss something?
Thanks for the video, this was very educating. Now, I have a question the following question: Will wound packing stop the bleeding in someone that has a rupture femoral vein from a gunshot? Please advise. Thanks in advance.
I had no idea one could expect soooo much blood. It was good to actually see what one might be dealing with. My question I have not found an answer to is this. What do you do after you have the bleeding stopped, but help will not be coming? (for whatever reason).
Must be nice, I have to spread my purchase of clotting agents, gauze or powder out over the year. Meaning buying every 3 months to stock a kit. The higher the chance it's life saving the more expensive the products.
That’s not actually true. $2 packing gauze and $45 quick clot have zero difference in survival. Also, don’t buy powders, they are ineffective and outmoded.
Been looking at training supplies to teach non-medical coworkers my EMT knowledge and because I really enjoy teaching. I'm not gonna pretend to know how to manufacture this equipment but for some silicon blend and a squeeze bottle, I'm not sure how this is over $500. It seems like an unfortunate barrier to entry.
The price can't be based on the cost of production and distribution. $500? No it must be based on a limited market demand/demographic..or its based on 'government be paying'. Its to bad its cost prohibited for the normal person who is trying to be a better citizen.
Yep. Low market demand for the quality and realism for demonstrative purposes rather than functional training for every Jane and Joe out there. I'm mostly self-funded as a K9 SAR worker, so this stuff is well beyond my personal needs, particularly because I specialize in detecting and recovering human remains so I rarely am the first at a scene with a survivor. It's cool to watch, though.
Tampons treated with a clotting agent in the bullet wound, y'all. 👍 Joking. Mostly. I'm just saying that I'm a human remains detection and recovery K9 handler, so I don't carry a full first responder kit since I'm only supposed to handle the dead. Sometimes weird shit happens and someone in a lost party is still kicking. That's why I was stuff like this that were excluded from my kit and training so I know what I should ideally be doing if I wasn't self-funded!
Is there any difference between trainer tourniquet and real ones? As far as my own research lead's, its pretty much a normal tourniquet painted blue, right?

I already use them in Florence, Italy! For STB Program and ITLS Provider Courses! They’re very strong and realistic!
Looking forward to yet another amazing trainer!
Do you guys work with Refuge Medical? I've heard they're one of the best civilian/public training classes out there.
The name's fitting
Thank you guys for giving us the trainer's we need to learn the skills well and keep them sharp. Keep up the good work
Bro, You're a Life Saver.
Man, wish those Bleeding models were avalable during Basic & AIT. Has to make a huge difference. Everyone needs to watch these 🙏🏼
You're doing a great job brother. Please continue to bring your videos that WILL save lives.
God bless

You could put a knee on it too
It will work with a garden sprayer type of pump, hand pumps, diaphragm and peristaltic pumps and wireless systems like the Skedco Hydrasim FEBBS too!

12:15 bro really said "squirt out the wound" 💀
and I thought my pain from seeing the TrueClot blood and mockups was enough

EWWWWWWWWWW i’m having nightmares now😢 Tysm now I will suffer in pain with nightmares❤😢
With a leg wound do you use a tourniquet and pack it also or just pack it? And why?
As a Halloween enthusist training props can have a duel purpose.
Is there any difference between trainer tourniquet and real ones?
As far as my own research lead's, its pretty much a normal tourniquet painted blue, right?
Pressure, elevation and hemostatic gause if necessary.
can you do videos on et tube placement and cpap? thanks!
Sam do u know who matt davis is?
Do a video about pain medicine plz
The correct way to say it is *“it doesn’t have any electronics”*
I need a class
the way i tell it its realistic enough is if it makes me a bit queasy
Are Cat 5 the best
Do you guys carry a foot first aid kit for long rucks? Didn’t see one on the website so figured I’d ask.
I don’t have a website….
My apologies, I assumed the links in the description were to your website. My bad. :)
Get some.
Damn I miss the Tommy Bahama shirt you're wearing, I had one but I'm too fat to fit in it now :(
Powerful mustache
expectation: you're the one to stop the bleeding
reality: you're bleeding and someone will save you?
amazon has a 25 buck small camera snake ...just letting ya know
Homeless people do have uses and no one will miss them.
@Random J.L.
POV: u start packing and making the injury 3 times wider
Nice men
Lol watching that fake blood flowing while drinking chocolate milk 😂
even though i knew they were fake, i couldn't help but feel very sick and queasy
poosi
Every month is a stop the bleed month if you're unlucky enough
1st!
youtube be like: NO YOU DONT
Just put a thumb in it
Edit. Nvm. I was really hoping for instuction rather than an advertisement. Meh normally really good stuff from this channel.
I have atleast 8 videos covering the instruction of bleeding control, including a full B-Con course.
Literally says True Clot Review in the title sir.
You know a mf said hear me out
Ok hear me out
Perhaps put a raincoat over your gear before you get into the bloody training.

I could use.....ah... little..mu mu morphine.......
