True Rescue Official STOP THE BLEED Kit, Mylar Pack, C-A-T Gen 7 Tourniquet, Trauma Dressing, Gauze

This is True Rescue's officially licensed STOP THE BLEED Kit, with the same components as the nylon-bag version packed into a flat, resealable Mylar pouch. It gives a lay responder a C-A-T Gen 7 tourniquet, a pressure dressing, wound packing gauze and the support items needed to control life-threatening bleeding until help arrives. The flat format suits wall cabinets, vehicles and bags where space is tight.

How it compares

Contents match the nylon-bag True Rescue STOP THE BLEED Kit; the difference is the flat Mylar packaging, which costs less and stores flatter, while the red nylon bag is easier to grab and more durable for daily carry. The Personal STB Kit is smaller still, with one gauze and no blanket.

Questions people ask

Is this an official STOP THE BLEED kit?
Yes. True Rescue is a licensed STOP THE BLEED kit maker, and this kit follows the American College of Surgeons guidelines for bleeding control kits.

What is the difference between the Mylar and nylon STOP THE BLEED kits?
The components are the same. The Mylar version uses a flat, resealable pouch instead of a red nylon carry bag, which makes it more economical and easier to store in cabinets.

Does this kit meet state school bleeding control kit laws?
True Rescue lists these kits as compliant with laws in California, Colorado, Indiana, Tennessee and Washington, and the Intermediate and Premium levels with Texas H.B. 496. Confirm your local requirements before buying for a school.

Do I need training to use a STOP THE BLEED kit?
Training such as a Stop the Bleed course is strongly recommended so you can apply a tourniquet and pack a wound correctly under stress.
