Traumagel is a new plant-based polymer that can be injected directly into wounds to stop severe bleeding. It is supplied in a syringe so it can be injected directly into a wound.
The FDA recently approved this product for Rx-only use. The manufacturer hopes to obtain approval for OTC use. Vetigel is a similar product for veterinary use.
Sounds like something that could be a valuable addition to a wilderness first aid kit.
