About QuikClot®
Developed by Z-Medica Corp., QuikClot® is a hemostatic agent designed to stop high-volume -- including arterial and venous -- bleeding. QuikClot® works by removing the liquid components from blood, allowing the platelets to clot rapidly. Whereas blood can take between 10 to 30 minutes to clot using direct pressure, QuikClot® will clot blood within five minutes. QuikClot® is made of a granulated mineral substance called Zeolite, which comes encased in a porous surgical sponge. It is biologically and botanically inert, leaving little chance of allergic reaction.
