TraumaFix Axiostat Military Z-Fold Haemostatic Gauze, 100% Chitosan
A 100% chitosan Z-fold haemostatic gauze that reacts with blood cells to form a robust seal, offering faster haemostasis than coated dressings. Its military branding and Z-fold packing style point toward use by combat medics, tactical responders and paramedics managing.
The TraumaFix Axiostat Military Z-Fold Haemostatic Gauze is a bioactive haemostatic dressing that works on a unique charge-based mechanism of mucoadhesion, forming a mechanical barrier directly at the bleeding site once applied. Like the related Axiostat patch, TraumaFix Tactical Axiostat dressings react with blood cells to create a robust seal over the wound, aiming to control significant bleeding faster than standard gauze alone.
What sets this product apart from many other haemostatic dressings on the market is that it is not simply coated or impregnated with chitosan, but is instead 100 percent chitosan throughout, which is presented as giving faster haemostasis compared with coated alternatives. The Z-fold format allows the gauze to be packed progressively into a wound cavity in a controlled, layered way, which is a common technique for managing deep or irregularly shaped bleeding wounds in the field.
Its military branding and Z-fold packing style point toward use by combat medics, tactical responders and paramedics managing severe haemorrhage, and it suits trauma kits built for high acuity bleeding control in pre-hospital and field settings.
