- QuikClot vs Celox (and ChitoGauze) - Differences Between Hemostatic Gauze
Hemostatic Gauze is a helpful tool when controlling bleeding. But is it necessary and which one should you buy for your trauma kit? We aim to address those very questions in this video.

Great video! Quick tip - if you see quickclot for $10-20, be sure to check the size. They do sell it in smaller sizes (more like a bandage), but you’d probably want the $30-45 ones for traumatic wound packing.
Another quick tip - pack the standard (non-hemostatic) gauze underneath the hemostatic gauze in your kit so that you grab the hemostatic gauze first to pack directly on the source of the bleed, and then use the much cheaper non-hemostatic gauze to finish packing the wound (if needed).
Great tips. Thanks!
As a TCCC and AFATT instructor I really appreciate this video and recommend it.
Thank you!
I appreciate you doing this one. I've wondered how clotting gauze works for a while. Do go ahead and expand on the cascade. I enjoy learning about what makes us tick!
Sounds good. It’s in the works.
My understanding is that they remove the protein from the shrimp shells that causes an allergic reaction.
Ah, makes sense. Thanks for the insight!
Correct
Great video!
Thank you for the video
Great video as always! Thank you
Thank you!
Thanks for the overview. My department decided to go with the Celox due to its ability to work outside of the clotting cascade. I’ve never used it on a civilian Pt but we do have a lot of people on the new blood thinners in our area.
Thanks for the in depth video
Sure thing!
Great channel. You’re doing excellent work!
Thank you!
Incredible video! Still super torn on Celox v QuickClot but if it's the #1 recommended from a medical source you sound to trust then I'm going Quick.
I’m curious how NuStat gauze compares? Enjoyed the video and appreciate the layman background info.
Excellent video. Question... is there a problem with "shellfish" allergies with the dressings that use the "Chito" clotting vehicle?? Thanks for your help... most interesting!! Ax
Are ther any advantages of Quick-Clot in comparison to chitosan based haemostyptika?
I know only disadvantages because it only relies on the bodies clottings cascade than can be disabled because of medication or hypothermia.
Combat-gauze is easier to pack into a wound as celox. Celox gauze is more rigid. But other chitosan products are as flexible as combat gauze or normal compressed gauze.
I know you said it but I want to highlight it:
Pressure is the key.
Combat gauze, Celox, helps to form a clot faster.
But it is pressure that stops the bleed.
Without pressure, hard and long, everything is totally useless.
So you would recommend for me as a civi with little medical knowledge to go Celox for a easier pack?
May I ask your sources, any answer would be awesome. Inbetween quick n celox.
what about Celox V12090 or xstat 30 /12 "tampon-like clot applicators"
Wonder why drugs and alcohol are cheaper to get than medical supplies that actually save lives? Cuz people care so much right? Smh
Chitosan is in the exoskeleton of shrimp/prawns. Allergy reactions if any should be contrasted with life saving hemostatic clotting.
Very useful info! Thank you.
