First Aid Shoppe Announces Smaller Dimensions For Their Compact Emergency Trauma Kit

May 23, 2016 – – First Aid Shoppe announced today that the dimensions for their ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit are now at 8 inches on the longest side, and that the total kit weight is now 5 ounces. First Aid Shoppe is a supplier of top tier survival and first aid items and full kits to professionals and to the general public. The ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit is a specialized kit designed to treat traumatic bleeding at the scene of an injury.

“The idea behind this kit is that it’s very compact,” says First Aid Shoppe COO, Anna Loehwing. “It’s designed for one purpose, and that’s to stop serious bleeding, fast, on the scene so you can stabilize the victim until help can arrive. It’s got just the items you need to do that, and so we’re able to keep the size down.”

Featured in the ResQue 1st Emergency Trauma Kit is the Advanced Clotting Sponge, a trauma sponge with a clot promoting hemostatic (clotting) agent that accelerates the body’s natural clotting action. Instruction for use are printed on the packaging, and the sponge can be opened and applied quickly. It promotes fast clotting within the first few minutes of application. The kit also includes other items for treating a bleeding injury, such as gauze, medical tape and antiseptic gloves.

“You can stick one of these just about anywhere,” says Ms. Loehwing. “It will fit easily in your glove box without taking much extra space, in a drawer, in your backpack, in a larger first aid kit — anywhere you can keep it easily and readily to hand. Hopefully you’ll never need it, but if you do this little kit could easily save a life.”

The Emergency Trauma Kit by First Aid Shoppe comes with an Advanced Clotting Sponge and other items for treating serious bleeding on the scene.
