Abstract
A pillow for supporting a wounded victim at a wound site incorporates a molecular sieve material which is at least partially exposed so that blood flowing from a wounded area supported by the pillow contacts the molecular sieve material to facilitate the clotting of blood flowing from the wound. A removable flexible casing for a pillow incorporates a molecular sieve material capable of providing a clotting function to the blood. An overlay comprising a molecular sieve material can be placed on top of a conventional pillow, on a gurney, or on any other surface. A method of treating a bleeding wound includes providing a pillow having molecular sieve material in particle form retained therein and using the pillow to support a bleeding wound such that blood flowing from the wound comes into contact with the molecular sieve material, thereby causing the blood to coagulate.
