More actions
Bloodstopper is a medical powder used by the Colonial military to prevent wounds from bleeding in an effective way. It immediately cauterizes gun-shot wounds and other types of bleedings. As the process creates heat, morpha is used along with it to ease the pain. It is included in standard medkits (Faith).
Notes
- The idea of bloodstopper comes from writer Bradley Thompson[1].
- Similar combat coagulants, such as QuikClot, are used by today's armies.
