Civilian use of hemostatic agents

[spmesser at dothan.org]

I am looking for incidents in which hemostatic agents were used in the
civilian pre-hospital setting to control severe bleeding.  Any response
either positive or negative would be appreciated.

not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall
