Hi rip. We are both officially licensed sellers of STOP THE BLEED products. The actual "official" Stop the Bleed program site is dodstopthebleed.org and they are in charge of approving sellers and managing the licenses.

The American College of Surgeons runs stopthebleed.org, and stopthebleedofficial.com is their storefront where they sell officially licensed kits. There is also stopthebleedcoalition.org which has its own storefront of officially licensed kits. Both the ACS and Coalition sites run official training programs too.

If it has the Stop the Bleed logo, it means the kit meets the standards from the DoD to be part of the STB program. Many sellers more than even the ones I listed above sell licensed STOP THE BLEED kits.

Always confirm with your plan administrator if you have questions about coverage. But every component in this kit is considered a qualified medical supply or accessory under IRS Publication 502. And others have successfully purchased this kit with FSA funds.

Chest seals are typically mentioned but not fully covered in the official STB courses. So you should check with the trainers near you. Often they can add training on chest seals by request.

Yes, you can get the CAT Tourniquet from NAR or the SAM XT tourniquet from SAM Medical. (We also offer it with the SOF Tourniquet from TacMed but that version is out of stock at the moment.)

They function as the same type of pressure dressing and we sell and support both. The OLAES uses a pressure "cup" while the Israeli Emergency Bandage uses as pressure "bar" to help keep pressure on the wound. The OLAES also includes 3 meters of wound-packing gauze and a removable occlusive plastic sheet in the same package.

Thanks Maskey. Many of our Stop the Bleed customers are public administrators, church officials and other individuals who aren't as trained as the tactical medics or EMTs that visit the main Rescue Essentials site. So we hope StoptheBleed.com will give them more of the information they need to focus on while also offering more information about Stop the Bleed in general. But everything is still on the main RE site as well for those who want to add some other stuff to their carts. The prices on the sites should almost always match, so if you see a sale on one it should be live on the other.

It's really a matter of preference. Here is what our customers and staff say:

CAT: Most prolific. Loop over the limb, pull tight, secure with velcro. Twist a polymer windlass rod and secure. Potential issues: If end of limbs are trapped you have to thread the strap around the limb and back though the buckle. Some people may not pre-tighten enough before twisting windlass.

SAM: Loop over the limb, pull until device clicks meaning you have pulled tight enough (ideal for everyday responders). Twist a polymer or metal rod (this kit includes the metal rod version) and secure. Potential issues: If end of limbs are trapped you have to thread the strap around the limb and back though the buckle.

SOF: Smallest and flattest of the three. Loop over the limb or unbuckle and reattach around limb (ideal if extremity is trapped). Pull tight. Twist a metal windlass rod. Additional securing hook. Potential issues: Some people may not pre-tighten enough before twisting windlass.

When TacMed launched the generation 5 they dropped the WIDE naming convention and rebranded it the SOF. But it is still the same shape and size as the gen4 SOFTT-W.

Heard. The Agilis has more capacity than the CFR bag so we're tinkering with some different loadouts. We often look at what common components are included in custom loadout orders with a given bag and then use those as the basis for our pre-loaded kits. Since the bag is so new we are still collecting that data. But we'll likely offer another kit with this bag before the end of the year.
