Celox Gauze (7.6cm x 3m)

Celox™ Gauze is an instinctive way of using Celox™ to stop even severe bleeding. Just pack the wound and apply pressure – its safe, easy and very effective.

Celox™ Gauze has highly effective Celox granules bonded on to the surface of a stable gauze which will not compact under pressure. Celox’s™ unique, patented and natural formula, works independently of the body’s normal clotting mechanisms to clot blood even where normal clotting is slow or impaired. In clinical testing Celox™ Gauze has repeatedly shown itself to be able to quickly and reliably stop even deep arterial bleeds.

How does Celox™ work?
Celox™ is an innovative new hemostat designed to bond with specific sites which are present on the surface of red blood cells and platelets to make a gel like clot /plug. This process is totally different from the body’s normal clotting mechanisms. Anticoagulants such as heparin and warfarin (often sold as Coumadin) can interfere with the body’s normal clotting process. They often delay blood clotting times. Hypothermia is also well known to delay clotting. As Celox™ works independently of the normal clotting process, its clotting ability is not affected by the presence of anticoagulants or by cold temperature. Laboratory testing has confirmed that Celox™ quickly clots blood containing heparin or warfarin (Coumadin). It has also shown that Celox™ also quickly clots blood which has been cooled to simulate hypothermia.
