To apply QuickClot cloth, first ensure that the wound is clean and gently pack the cloth directly onto the bleeding area. Apply firm and direct pressure for at least 3 minutes, allowing the clotting agents in the cloth to activate and promote hemostasis. If bleeding persists, you can add more cloth on top without removing the initial application. Once bleeding has stopped, secure the cloth with a bandage or dressing as needed.
