Celox Rapid Ribbon is a thin hemostatic "ribbon" impregnated with Chitosan. It is the first compact-carry minimal compression time gauze for narrow entry wounds. The 1" x 5' strip is easier to insert into the wound track. CeloxTM Rapid Ribbon brings all the benefits of Celox Rapid Gauze in a 1 inch strip. The low profile pack is easily concealed. The reduced size makes it ideal for treating narrow entry wounds such as bullet, blast fragment and stab injuries. CeloxTM Rapid provides considerably reduced treatment time, as well as, quicker compression time in laboratory tests. Independent testing has shown that the faster treatment time offered by CeloxTM Rapid significantly reduces blood loss. Evacuation tests have shown that CeloxTM Rapid maintains its volume and adhesion to wet tissue during use, with no re-bleeding and hemostasis maintained during transport.
