CELOX Rapid Ribbon

Medtrade products shot in studio 14-6-2013

CELOX Rapid Ribbon is the first compact-carry, minimal compression time gauze designed specifically for narrow entry wounds such as gsw, stab, or shrapnel wounds. The Rapid Ribbon is 1 inch wide and 5 feet long fully unfurled, roughly the size of a ‘fun size’ candy bar when in package, and requires minimal-to-no compression giving it a pack-and-go capability.

One Response to “CELOX Rapid Ribbon”

  1. Not Harry Potter says:

    Whoa there. Before someone dies, let’s think about this. Unless this comes with a magic wand, direct pressure and compression will be needed for most combat wounds. Celox may assert that it “requires minimal-to-no compression”, but that must be for a very narrow context, and not for the majority of combat wounds. That said, the new size looks like a good idea, and no savvy well-trained combat medic is likely to use it inappropriately. However, many lay responders might get the wrong idea.
