Is this the same as an "QuikClot Advanced Clotting Sponge" but in gauze form?

Yes, the gauze is kaolin-laced (a clotting agent) roller gauze with a X-Ray strip (can be easily identified by X-Ray imaging). In gauze form though it is more practical to be stuffed into wounds, making it better than the sponge as well as the preferred form by the US Army. (-A US Army 68W Combat Medic)

QuikClot is a one-time use item. It's a blood-absorbing sponge. If you ever need to use it, it's worth the cost you paid.

Yes, it is a powder and there is also a trauma dressing with it. It is for major wounds. I don't want to open it since it is vacuum packed and dry. You can buy QuikClot powder in different forms on Amazon. I have them for nosebleeds and fir smaller cuts. I am on blood thinners so my blood does not clot as fast. I thought this would be perfect for those occasions.

I just use regular 2x2 gauze. You can also use a fan brush but I like to keep it simple.

I have not used it, but I believe the answer is no. It appears to be a flat, fairly large, waterproofed seal. I believe you simply place it over the wound, especially a sucking chest wound, and seal the area. Be sure to look for both entry and exit wounds.

It is more like a ribbon...you can order it in different widths and lengths as specified by your MD or as in my case wound clinic...it is an excellent product and I hope it works for you...

Probably not. It's definitely not gauze like, it's not super heavy but it's not light weight either. It's softer than other muslim I've had as a backdrop but I wouldn't want to use this to cover me at night!

I just bought the 3ply prefold and they are so thin. I usually sew on them to make them pretty but I don't like the new weight, so I caved and purchased the heavyweight gauze prefold, and they are very nice for burp cloths. that is what I would recommend. they are sold in a 5 pack for about 12.50 (at walmart if you can find them) here are the heavy weigh gauze I ended up buying instead. http://www.amazon.com/Gerber-Count-Heavyweight-Gauze-Prefold/dp/B007VBYVXI/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1402663499&sr=8-3&keywords=gerber+cloth+diaper just about the same price as walmart

Yes - My wound was bandaged with surgical gauze. It will work fine. To put the bag on, I put my fingers threw the seal & put my foot in the bag. (My wound had 16 stitches & very tender for the first week!).

It is a compress/gauze infused with quick clot powder. It acts like a pressure bandage.

It is not that thin thin gauze, but just a simple cotton. Wash on gentle cycle.

I use a surgical tape called Hy Tape-the pink tape. It seals the bandage totally, and is excellent for multiple day use.

Yes, and it is very elastic. It keeps your bandage in place much better than an Ace Bandage.

There is adhesive on the edges of the gauze-excellent doctor's office type quality!

On the ones I've received if they have any at all. They are just nonsterile nonmedicated gauze pads. They keep for loooooooong time
