Cauterizing seal patch

A cauterizing seal patch was a piece of medical equipment available to Federation medical personnel in the 24th century.

Doctor Julian Bashir always kept a cauterizing seal patch in his medkit, which was most fortunate when he was attacked by the Jem'Hadar Kitana'klan in April 2376. Bashir received severe wounds and was loosing a lot of blood but was able to apply the patch before he passed out, which saved his life.
