PRODUCT INFORMATION

6:8 Medical Solutions · Junctional Pressure Bandage

The HEMGUARD® Targeted Pressure Bandage

A pressure bandage built for the wound sites where wrapping all the way around is either impossible or dangerous — neck, axilla, groin and amputation stumps. It anchors in up to four directions, applies leveraged compression in two, and concentrates force through a targeted pressure head instead of squeezing the whole circumference. 4 in. And 6 in. widths, latex-free, five-year shelf life.

Junctional and stump sites4-way anchoringPopp Point Pressure™ headLatex-free · 5-year shelf life

An elastic bandage works on a limb because you can wrap all the way round. On a neck you cannot, and on a groin you should not — that is the gap this fills.

What's Included

One bandage per package, in the width you select. The device is the same in both widths — only the bandage width changes. Tap a size.

FDA listed is not the same thing as FDA cleared; 'FDA listed' and that is what is reproduced here. Where to apply pressure, how much, for how long, and when to escalate to packing or a junctional tourniquet are clinical decisions governed by your training and protocol.

▾Who Carries It

Tactical and combat medics carrying an answer for junctional bleeding that a limb tourniquet cannot reach · Law enforcement and SWAT medics working penetrating neck and axillary wounds · EMS and rescue providers holding pressure through an extended extrication or transport where a provider's hands are needed elsewhere · Prolonged field care teams managing rebleed risk over hours rather than minutes.

Scope of practice. Junctional hemorrhage control is a trained intervention. This bandage is a pressure device, not a substitute for wound packing, a hemostatic agent, a junctional tourniquet or surgical control, and it does not decide when any of those are indicated. Follow your training, your protocol and your medical direction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What makes the HEMGUARD different from a standard pressure bandage?

The HEMGUARD® has four features that standard pressure bandages lack: (1) a targeted pressure head (Popp Point Pressure™ technology) that directs force straight down onto the wound source rather than just circumferentially; (2) 4-way anchoring that allows the bandage to be secured in multiple directions without full circumferential wrapping; (3) mechanical advantage in two directions to maximize pressure with less provider effort; and (4) design optimization for problematic anatomical sites — neck, axilla, groin, and stumps — where standard bandages cannot maintain position or adequate pressure.

What wound sites is the HEMGUARD designed for?

The HEMGUARD is specifically designed for anatomically challenging junctional wound sites: neck wounds, axillary (armpit) wounds, inguinal (groin) wounds, and amputated limb stumps. These are sites where tourniquets cannot be applied and conventional wrapping-style bandages struggle to maintain position and pressure. The HEMGUARD's 4-way anchoring and targeted pressure head enable consistent, reliable hemorrhage control at these difficult locations.

Which size HEMGUARD should I choose — 4 in or 6 in?

The 4-inch HEMGUARD is appropriate for smaller wound sites, pediatric patients, and locations like the neck where a narrower bandage profile is needed. The 6-inch HEMGUARD is preferred for larger wound sites, adult junctional wounds, and amputated limb stumps where a wider pressure surface is needed to cover the wound area adequately. When in doubt, the 6-inch provides more coverage without sacrificing placement control.

Is the HEMGUARD CoTCCC compatible?

The HEMGUARD® is FDA listed and CE marked (2025) as a Class I medical device. Its application is consistent with CoTCCC guidelines for junctional hemorrhage control — the treatment category covering wounds not amenable to tourniquet placement. While the HEMGUARD is not itself CoTCCC-listed by name, it addresses the same clinical need as CoTCCC-recommended junctional hemorrhage control devices and integrates with CoTCCC-recommended wound packing protocols.

Can the HEMGUARD be used with hemostatic gauze?

Yes. The HEMGUARD is designed to be applied over a wound packed with hemostatic gauze. The targeted pressure head maintains downward force on the packed wound during transport and evacuation, preventing gauze displacement and sustaining the pressure needed for clot formation. This combination of hemostatic wound packing plus HEMGUARD retention dressing represents the intended use for severe junctional hemorrhage management.
