Bleeding Control: How SEAL Hemostatic Spray Transforms Emergency Trauma Care

In critical emergencies, stopping bleeding quickly saves lives. First responders have long relied on tourniquets, gauze, and pressure dressings. But  SEAL Hemostatic Wound Spray is emerging as the next evolution in trauma care—an innovative, fast-acting, and easy-to-apply solution to control severe bleeding, especially in hard-to-treat areas.

Bleeding is the leading cause of preventable death in trauma. Standard tools for hemorrhage control include:

• Tourniquets – Critical for limb injuries. Learn more from the Stop the Bleed campaign .

• Pressure dressings – Like the Israeli bandage, useful for compressible injuries.

• Hemostatic gauzes – Infused with agents like kaolin or chitosan to aid clotting.

• Occlusive chest seals – Used to prevent pneumothorax from penetrating chest wounds.

These tools are effective but have limitations —especially for junctional wounds (e.g., groin, neck, axilla), where applying compression or wound packing is nearly impossible.

SEAL Hemostatic Wound Spray is the first and only FDA-cleared chitosan-based aerosol for bleeding control. It’s trusted by EMS systems, fire departments, and tactical teams across the U.S.

⭐ Key Features:

• Stops bleeding in seconds

• Chitosan-based: A biopolymer shown to rapidly clot blood even in coagulopathic patients. Read more via NCBI

• Cold-propellant formula: Soothes and cools wound sites, ideal for burns and abrasions

• Easy removal: Simply rinse with saline or water—no cutting or debridement

To fully realize the benefits of SEAL, we recommend:

1. Brief Training Sessions

While SEAL is intuitive, conducting a quick in-service or hands-on demo will boost responder confidence.

2. Smart Storage

Place SEAL in a high-visibility, accessible section of your trauma kit. Ideal for outer pockets or compartments next to tourniquets or gloves.

3. Protocol Updates

Incorporate SEAL into your hemorrhage control SOPs, especially for junctional bleeding or as a secondary step after pressure fails.

4. Ongoing Supply

Stock up via our multi-pack bundles or reach out for bulk ordering for departments.

Real-world applications where SEAL delivers unmatched value:

• School resource officers or campus police managing stabbing incidents

• Fire crews at industrial accidents or motor vehicle collisions

• SWAT medics treating gunshot wounds during barricade situations

• Wildland responders handling burn injuries alongside bleeding
