Safeguard Medical LTOWB Transfusion Set Fresh Whole Blood Collection Kit

***Fast Delivery: 1-2 weeks!

The Safeguard Medical Low Titer Type-O Whole Blood (LTOWB) Transfusion Set (SKU 80-875) delivers everything required to collect, screen, document, and transfuse one unit of fresh whole blood in a single compact, sealed package. Standardized by the Defense Health Agency (DHA) and exceeding Armed Services Blood Program (ASBP) Clinical Practice Guidelines for walking blood bank operations, this set supports life-saving hemorrhagic shock resuscitation at or near the point of injury. The complete kit weighs 18.5 oz and packages down to 14" x 10.5" x 2". Shelf life extends up to one year from manufacture.

Who this is for

  • Military medics and combat casualty care teams: designed for walking blood bank operations and point-of-injury resuscitation where pre-hospital whole blood transfusion is the standard of care
  • EMS and pre-hospital providers: enables warm fresh whole blood administration during long-duration transport when cold-stored whole blood is not available or hemorrhagic shock demands immediate resuscitation
  • Emergency medical responders and trauma teams: a DHA-standardized, ASBP-compliant set that simplifies donor screening, ABO/Rh typing, sample collection, and transfusion into a single workflow

Why fresh whole blood

Whole blood — and LTOWB specifically — is the preferred resuscitation product for pre-hospital treatment of patients in hemorrhagic shock. Transfusion of fresh whole blood has proven time and again to improve outcomes for casualties in or at risk of hemorrhagic shock. The ability to deliver warm fresh whole blood rapidly at or near the point of injury makes the difference in austere environments where component therapy is unavailable.

This set supports the full spectrum of whole blood operations: from walking blood bank collections in the field to augmenting long-duration transport of pre-screened Cold-Stored Whole Blood (CSWB). Every item in the package is purpose-selected to enable, augment, and simplify delivery of this intervention in any environment.

Frequently asked questions

What is included in the kit?

The set contains everything needed to collect and transfuse one unit of fresh whole blood: a 450 mL blood pack, Y-type IV set with filter, two 16G safety IV catheters, four chlorhexidine swabs, a latex-free constricting band, two clear IV dressings, two needle port caps with Luer locks, a blood bag label, ASBP 572-EWB form, SF 518, cable tie, nylon cord, and Instructions for Use. Donor Set, Recipient Set, and IFU are included.

What does LTOWB mean and why does it matter?

LTOWB stands for Low Titer Type-O Whole Blood. Type-O is the universal donor blood type, and low titer refers to reduced levels of anti-A and anti-B antibodies, making it safer for transfusion across ABO blood groups in emergencies. It is the preferred resuscitation product for pre-hospital hemorrhagic shock when full compatibility testing is not possible.

What is a walking blood bank?

A walking blood bank is a pre-screened group of donors — typically soldiers, first responders, or personnel — who are typed, screened, and ready to donate fresh whole blood on demand at or near the point of injury. This set exceeds ASBP Clinical Practice Guidelines for walking blood bank operations and provides all necessary documentation and collection materials for a single-unit draw and transfusion.

How long does this kit remain usable?

The packaged shelf life extends up to one year. Rotate stock accordingly and observe the expiration date printed on the package. Once the seal is broken and blood is collected, transfusion should follow immediately per clinical protocol.

Is this kit compliant with DoD procurement requirements?

Yes. This set is both TAA Compliant and Berry Compliant, satisfying federal acquisition requirements for Department of Defense and government purchasing channels. It carries NSN 6515-01-684-9074 for direct ordering through the federal supply system.

Who is qualified to use this kit?

This kit is intended for use by trained medical personnel — including military medics, paramedics, emergency physicians, and other qualified pre-hospital or clinical providers — operating under appropriate protocols and scope of practice.

The Bulletproof Zone Promise

When you buy body armor, you're buying your safety. We don't take that lightly. Here's what every order from Bulletproof Zone includes.

1. Authorized dealer of every brand we carry

Every plate, vest, and carrier we ship comes from the manufacturer directly to our warehouse. We don't sell gray-market product, surplus, or returns. That means factory-fresh stock, the full manufacturer warranty, and real after-sale support — the kind only an authorized dealer can offer.

We maintain authorized-dealer relationships with America's leading body armor brands, including Spartan Armor Systems, AR500 Armor, RMA Defense, Shellback Tactical, Caliber Armor, DFNDR Armor, Protection Group Denmark, BulletSafe, BulletBlocker, and over 40 more.

2. Best price, guaranteed

If you find a lower price at another authorized dealer of the same product within six months of your purchase, we'll refund the difference.

Why the "authorized dealer" requirement? Because gray-market and surplus armor may not be genuine, may have a compromised supply chain, and almost never comes with a manufacturer warranty. We won't price-match against products that may not actually protect you.

3. Free fitment consultation

Body armor only protects you if it fits. Email us a photo and your measurements before you order, and one of our specialists will help you size your carrier and plates correctly — at no charge, no obligation.

4. Trusted by thousands of customers

Bulletproof Zone has been a trusted authorized dealer of America's leading body armor manufacturers for over five years. We have over 4,000 verified Trustpilot reviews from real customers across all 50 states.

Price Match Guarantee — Terms

  • You must have purchased the item from our website before requesting the price match.
  • Discounted items and "free with purchase" items are not eligible.
  • The item must be in stock on the competitor's website at the time of your request.
  • The price match is valid for six months from the date of your purchase.
  • The competitor must be an authorized dealer of the product. Auction sites (eBay, Overstock), discounters, and gray-market resellers do not qualify.
  • The competitor must operate an online store. Brick-and-mortar-only retailers do not qualify.
  • Price match applies to the item price plus shipping. Sales tax is excluded.

To request a price match, email us a link to the product on our site and the same product on the competitor's site within six months of purchase. We'll process the refund.
