Product Overview
The Ultra-Compact Trauma IFAK goes beyond a basic bleeding control kit. While it anchors on CoTCCC-recommended hemorrhage control — the C-A-T® tourniquet, QuikClot® hemostatic dressing, and ETD™ trauma dressing that address the leading cause of preventable traumatic death — it also covers the broader spectrum of injuries encountered in home, vehicle, outdoor, and workplace settings. BurnTec and silver dressings address thermal and contaminated wounds. Tegaderm films and wound closure strips manage lacerations and abrasions. A CPR face mask, eye shields, pen light, and syringe for wound irrigation equip the responder for assessment and intervention beyond hemorrhage. The average EMS response time in urban areas is 7–8 minutes; this kit is designed so that any responsible adult can provide meaningful care across multiple injury types in that critical window.
MED-TAC International's curation philosophy prioritizes genuine, manufacturer-sourced components — no budget substitutions, no expired-grade supplies. The included C-A-T® tourniquet is genuine North American Rescue–manufactured (NSN 6515-01-521-7976), not a counterfeit. The hemostatic dressing is kaolin-based, the current CoTCCC recommendation. BurnTec and Silverlon dressings are sourced from their respective brand manufacturers. With 27 components spanning hemorrhage control, burn care, wound management, airway support, and diagnostic tools, this is one of the most complete compact kits available at this size and weight.
At 1.35 lbs and 5" × 3.5" × 7.5", the kit is genuinely ultra-compact: it fits in a cargo pocket, glove box, range bag, or mounts flat on MOLLE webbing on a plate carrier or duty belt. The MOLLE-compatible case uses a zippered main compartment with pull-tab access tabs for one-handed retrieval under stress. Coyote Tan and Black colorways accommodate both tactical/military and civilian/plainclothes contexts. For a broader look at kit building, see The Complete IFAK Guide.
