A New Way to Stop the Bleed

It appears this is only available to medical professionals at this point, but I bet it won't be long before it's available OTC for our first aid kits.

I've been following this stuff, and I'm really hopeful it comes out.  It's supposed to work really well.

Plus it's almost a real life StimPak.  Just inject into the wound.  So coo =D =Dl

If I were a person who likes to invest I would put this company on my radar so I didn't miss the IPO. Even now it may be possible to find pre-IPO shares for sale by the current employees. This type of technology will most likely do nothing but grow and take the company with it.
