60,000 in the U.S. die every year due to traumatic blood loss, and many of those cases are preventable. Having the right gear at the right time can be the difference between staying in the fight and having a really, really bad day. Life threatening bleeding can occur from everyday emergencies such as vehicle crashes, incidents involving farming equipment or public transportation, accidental injuries from natural disasters like tornadoes, and inflicted injuries from man-made disasters such as shootings and bombings. 
-
We've teamed up with North American Rescue to bring you these Individual Bleeding Control Kits, designed to provide essential equipment that empowers the general public to take action as immediate responders in stopping life threatening bleeding.

Packed within a ruggedized, vacuum-sealed pouch, this life saving kit provides intuitive and easy-to-use tools that are proven to help to save lives such as the fastest, safest and most effective prehospital tourniquet in the world, the C-A-T®, quality gauze, shears, and pressure dressings/bandages.
