*The STOP THE BLEED® campaign is a cooperative effort between the U.S. Government, the private sector and the American public. It is one of the nation’s largest public health campaigns and is designed to enhance anyone’s ability to take decisive, lifesaving action to assist victims with traumatic injuries. This will be accomplished by providing the public with both the knowledge and tools necessary to stabilize an injured person and control severe bleeding until first responders arrive on the scene.

Under the leadership of the Department of Defense, the STOP THE BLEED® (STB) campaign is designed to take the life-saving lessons learned on the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan to the general public. The initiative directly translates the military’s techniques for treating traumatic injuries involving severe bleeding into a hands-on training course that will enable those taking the course to control bleeding until the first responders arrive. Under the guidance of DoD’s Combat Casualty Care Research Program, the STB campaign’s goal is to empower the public to save lives by giving them the opportunity to receive quality training and to ensure that they have access to bleeding control kits that meet or exceed DoD’s requirements for quality and functionality.
