Wound Closure Kit

This is a great item. To have a COMPLETE would care in one package is so beneficial in an anxious moment while camping, hiking and off-grid. I picked this product because I loved the clear wound shield that we apply after "stitching" together the would. That is worth as much as the butterfly clamps. I could. not find them in any other product. I am aware that, for close to the same price I could get 6 more clamps by themselves but I bought an second package of the complete Rescue just because of these wound shields.

I actually had to unfortunately use these within 1 week I got them. They did an awesome job of closing a forearm deep 4" long laceration no blood drip untill removal and sutures after . Awesome product!

This Wound Closure Kit is a solid choice for rounding off your first aid supplies. It includes six zip stitch strips, BZK and alcohol pads for cleaning, nitrile gloves, scissors, and waterproof dressings, all well-organized and ready to use​. The zip stitch strips are the prize here, much cheaper than the next name brand. The waterproof dressings and adhesive ensure that wounds stay protected and clean. However, the gauze pads are a bit thin, so you might need to use a few at a time to get the right coverage. Overall, the kit is high-quality and provides everything you need to handle cuts and lacerations efficiently. It's a handy addition to any first aid kit, Highly recommended for its value!

As a wound closure kit, it is pretty comprehensive when compared to others on the market. BZK and alcohol wipes a plenty, gloves, shears, wound closures, pads, and one thing you usually won't find; island style wound covers. There's no sense in closing a wound if you can't keep it clean, right? My one gripe with this kit is the wound pads. They really cheap out and give you woven pads, instead of non-woven. Not a big deal, right? Personally, if I'm covering a wound, I want something that isn't going to stick to it and be a pain to change out if need be. Yes, I realize these kits are a temporary solution and if your wound is bad enough to need one of these kits, you should really have it checked by a doctor at some point. That said, though, at this price point, how about we provide better quality gear? Other than that gripe, I do like these kits. The ziploc style storage bag is nice and heavy, and everything is neatly packaged with a laminated "guide". I think this is a nice addition to a backpack, or even a daily carry. I'll be keeping one in my vehicle as I work around sharp tools and it will be nice knowing this is on hand, just in case.

We have multiple First Aid Kits - for our extensive hiking and camping - as part of our Camel water pack, as well as for our vacations and snorkeling adventures - and especially when professional medical assistance help is not close at hand. They have been more than just helpful on many occasions - taking care of many minor injuries and a few more serious occasions. If you agree that every adventure has the possibility of miss-adventure and you’ve possibly experienced a few, you know that when you need to a suture in the field little else will substitute. Whether you’re at home or, moreover in the field and faced with bleeding cuts or, lacerations - you want to simply get past wound cleaning and onto closure ASAP. And these No-Stitch adhesive adjustable sutures bring Emergency room trauma care right into the field. Along with replacing threaded suture needles and the experience one would need to use them - besides adding these adhesive sutures …wound cleaning / disinfection materials and ointments, surrounding wound-area drying (for best suture adhesion) and sterile wound coverings are among the other supplies you want to make sure are in your 1st Aid Kits in order to set the stage for these sutures to be most effective for many cuts and lacerations. Be sure to at least review (multiple times) the how-to videos each of the adhesive-suture manufactures provide on their in-field use. To make these supplies even more useful - know that in an emergency your ability to not just have these in your first aid kit - but be able to use them - is as important to their effective use as having them in the first place. For instance if you try to use these on non-dry-skin they will fail! On all counts in emergency wound care - you want to be aware of what materials you have on hand in your 1st aid kit - that all are within expiration date - and the probability of how soon there might be access to professional medical care. Per any online search of “lacerations” most Short Term Emergency care lists include, among others: 1) Whenever possible - immediately be in communication with professional medical care - ask for instructions for immediate patient care - and follow the professional instructions given. 2) Else the basic goals listed in caring for any wound are: • Be and stay calm yourself. • Reassure, calm and make / keep the injured individual comfortable - warm/cool as needed. • Slow / Stop any bleeding - using only as much pressure as needed to do so. • If possible elevate wound area above the heart • Avoid infection • Achieve the best wound care with the least scarring. To offer more than these basic instructions is problematic - but know that your personal experience, knowledge,1st aid training and 1st aid kit preparation to deal with accidents is always a positive when it comes to being of aid to yourself and others when they occur.

More of a wound kit than bites, bumps, scratches and scrapes. Should be in every car, go bag, camping/hunting ruck, home medicine cabinet. Package a little large, but great “serious” wound kit. Not for a first aide kit for minor wounds or bandaid applications, a serious wound kit! Will get you to medical care if needed! Properly applied will stop bleeding and protect the wound!

This is a nice kit for my emergency pouch, thankfully haven’t had to use it.

Great addition for first aid kit for an outdoors person
