What is a bleed control kit?

A bleed control kit contains the essential equipment to stop severe, life-threatening bleeding before the emergency services arrive. Typical contents include a tourniquet, haemostatic dressing, wound packing gauze, a trauma dressing, shears and gloves. They are used to treat knife wounds, gunshot wounds, industrial accidents and other catastrophic bleeds.

What is a Public Access Trauma (PAcT) kit?

A Public Access Trauma (PAcT) kit is a bleed control kit designed to be mounted in public places so that bystanders can respond to a catastrophic bleed quickly. Like a public access defibrillator, it provides the public with immediate access to life-saving trauma equipment such as tourniquets and haemostatic dressings.

Where should bleed control kits be located?

Bleed control kits should be kept where the risk of catastrophic bleeding is highest or where large numbers of people gather, such as schools, public buildings, transport hubs, sports venues, construction sites and workplaces using cutting machinery. They should be clearly signed and easily accessible in an emergency.

Can I build my own bleed control kit?

Yes. Jax First Aid offers build-your-own bleed control kits and empty bleed kit bags, so you can tailor the contents to your own risk assessment. We also supply pre-assembled options such as personal trauma kits, PAcT kits and major incident kits.
