Both use the same Chito+ chitosan hemostatic technology and carry CoTCCC-recommended status. The key difference is radiopaque detection: XR PRO has one embedded X-ray-visible thread; XR2 PRO has two, providing enhanced imaging confirmation for complex or deep cavity wounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;margin:14px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Why would I choose two radiopaque threads over one?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: In deep thoracic, abdominal, or pelvic wounds, dense tissue may obscure a single radiopaque marker on imaging. The second thread provides redundancy, reducing the risk of missing a retained gauze. Forward surgical teams and Level I trauma centers with retained foreign body protocols often mandate dual-strip dressings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;margin:14px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Is XR2 PRO CoTCCC-recommended?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Yes. ChitoGAUZE XR2 PRO carries CoTCCC-recommended status under TCCC Guideline Change 13-05. CoTCCC uses the term \"recommended,\" not \"approved\" or \"certified.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;margin:14px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Can I use XR2 PRO on a patient taking blood thinners?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px;\"\u003eA: Yes. The chitosan mechanism is cascade-independent — it does not rely on the coagulation cascade to achieve hemostasis, making it effective in patients on warfarin, heparin, or other anticoagulants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--PPLX_FAQ_END--\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- ===== COMPLIANCE FOOTER ===== --\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:11px;color:#aaa;border-top:1px solid #ddd;padding-top:14px;line-height:1.7;margin-top:16px;\"\u003e\n  ChitoGAUZE XR2 PRO is indicated for external use in the management of severe hemorrhage.

The woven fabric is the structural material; chitosan is the additive. Axiostat is manufactured from 100% chitosan — there is no inert fabric. The gauze material itself is the hemostatic agent throughout its full thickness, delivering higher active chitosan density per packed volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Is Axiostat Z-Fold CoTCCC-recommended?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Axiostat is not currently listed as a CoTCCC-recommended hemostatic agent. CoTCCC-recommended products (QuikClot Combat Gauze, ChitoGauze XR Pro, Celox Gauze) have undergone specific U.S. military validation processes. Axiostat is a clinically validated chitosan hemostatic used in surgical and emergency contexts globally, but has not completed that specific CoTCCC pathway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: How do I use the Z-Fold format for wound packing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Open the package and locate the first fold of the Z-fold. Using a gloved index finger, begin pressing the gauze into the deepest point of the wound cavity. Feed the gauze progressively as you pack — the accordion fold allows controlled unraveling while you maintain packing pressure. Pack tightly, filling the entire cavity. Apply firm direct pressure over the wound for 3–5 minutes. Do not remove in the field; leave for surgical personnel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Can Axiostat Z-Fold be used for junctional wounds?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Yes — junctional wounds (groin, axilla, neck) are a primary indication. When a tourniquet cannot be applied due to wound location, deep wound packing with hemostatic gauze is the recommended intervention. The Z-Fold format and pure chitosan construction make Axiostat suitable for this application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Does the 100% chitosan construction affect removal or wound care after packing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 0;\"\u003eA: Chitosan is biocompatible and the material will soften when saturated with blood and wound fluid. Removal should be performed by medical personnel in a controlled setting. Do not remove a packed wound in the field once hemostasis has been achieved — disruption of the formed clot risks re-hemorrhage. In surgical settings, irrigation aids in removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!--PPLX_FAQ_END--\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Axiobio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42377724428406,"sku":"MIL-300-Z","price":38.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/6909\/4262\/files\/axiostat-z-fold-hemostatic-gauze-100-chitosan-based-bleeding-control-solution-3281543.png?v=1780701723"},{"product_id":"axiostat-l88-hemostatic-patch-100-chitosan-based-bleeding-control-solution-copy","title":"Axiostat L88 Hemostatic Trauma Patch – 100% Chitosan-Based Bleeding Control Solution","description":"\u003c!-- Axiostat L88 Hemostatic Patch — Axiobio | tactical-medicine.com --\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n  @import url('https:\/\/fonts.googleapis.com\/css2?family=Chakra+Petch:wght@400;600;700\u0026family=Barlow:wght@400;500;600\u0026display=swap');\n  .pdp-wrap { font-family: 'Barlow', sans-serif; color: #121212; max-width: 960px; margin: 0 auto; }\n  .pdp-wrap h1, .pdp-wrap h2, .pdp-wrap h3 { font-family: 'Chakra Petch', 'Barlow', sans-serif; }\n  .pdp-wrap * { box-sizing: border-box; }\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"pdp-wrap\"\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- 1.

The gauze provides structure but the chitosan is only on the surface. Axiostat is made entirely of chitosan — the material itself is the biopolymer, with no inert fabric substrate. This means every surface in contact with the wound is active hemostatic chitosan, not inert backing material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Is Axiostat L88 CoTCCC-recommended?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Axiostat is not currently listed on the TCCC guidelines as a CoTCCC-recommended hemostatic agent. It is a clinically validated chitosan-based hemostatic used in surgical and emergency medicine contexts. CoTCCC recommendation requires specific U.S. military trauma validation processes that Axiostat has not completed as of current guidelines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: How fast does Axiostat L88 achieve hemostasis?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: Axiobio claims hemostasis in under 30 seconds based on their clinical data. The bioadhesive pure chitosan material begins bonding to red blood cells and platelets on contact, forming a stable clot matrix rapidly. Results vary by wound type, blood pressure, and coagulation status.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Can Axiostat L88 be used for wound packing?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: The L88 patch format is optimized for surface application — flat wounds, facial trauma, surgical fields, and accessible lacerations. For wound packing of deep cavities, junctional wounds, and gunshot wound channels, the Axiostat Z-Fold Hemostatic Gauze is the appropriate Axiobio format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;margin:12px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Who manufactures Axiostat?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Barlow',sans-serif;font-size:14px;margin:0 0 0;\"\u003eA: Axiostat is manufactured by Axiobio Technologies, an Indian biotech company.

mean?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: \"100\" refers to the 100% chitosan coating concentration — the full substrate is coated at maximum chitosan density, ensuring complete hemostatic contact from the moment the gauze touches the wound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;margin:14px 0 4px;\"\u003eQ: Is 3\"×6\" enough to pack a serious wound?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eA: For moderate extremity bleeding and smaller wound channels, yes. For deep or large wounds requiring extensive packing, the larger 3\"×4yd ChitoGAUZE formats provide more material.
