A trusty resource for any backcountry explorer, the ChitoSAM Active hemostatic dressing is designed to help effectively stop bleeding and keep wounds clean until you can receive medical attention. Made from a 100-percent Chitosan, the dressing is naturally resistant to fungi, bacteria, and viruses like MRSA, VRE, and E. coli. Functioning similarly to your body’s natural hemostatic response, it quickly forms a clot on the surface of the wound without requiring you to apply much pressure. Unlike clay alternatives, the dressing is non-degrading and has no nanoparticles to get stuck to the wound. Because Chitosan contains no cloth, once you’ve sought out medical attention, the dressing can be easily removed without causing additional stress to the area.
Note: At checkout, choose the 4-by-4 inch dressing (base price) or the 3 inch-by-6 foot Z-Fold dressing (+$20).
