How to use Celox
Using Celox is easy. You just apply it the bleeding area and apply some pressure. This pressure forces the Celox into close contact with the bleeding area.
For minor bleeding, finger tip pressure is effective and an efficient clot will form in a matter of seconds.
For more major bleeding full compression (as taught as part of First Aid Training) for 3 minutes is required. This gives the Celox pseudo clot time to form and strengthen to hold back major bleeding.
Celox flakes swell, gel, and stick together when in contact with blood to make a gel like pseudo clot. Celox works by bonding with red blood cells and gelling with fluids to produce a sticky pseudo clot. This clot sticks well to moist tissue to plug the bleeding site.
