Israeli Bandage Battle Dressing First Aid Compression Bandage, 6 Inch

Product Information

Subsequent wrappings of the leader secures and maintains the pad in place over the wound, and by covering all the edges of the pad acts as a sterile secondary dressing.

However, Bar-Natan formed First Care Products Ltd and supervised the design and production of the bandage. This internationally patented and FDA-approved modular bandage is the ideal solution for emergency treatment when every second counts. In the training he was taught to grab a stone and to use it to apply pressure to a wound that would not clot on its own, he thought that the bandage should have a pressure bar built in the bandage itself. It combines a thick, none adherent 6" sterile wound pad, elastic bandage, pressure applicator and closure clip in one sterile unit, that is quick and easy to apply without the need for tape, safety pins, or other bandages. If additional pressure is required the closure bar is easily removed from its first closure position and inserted between previous layers of the leader directly above the protruding pressure bar and rotated.The Emergency Bandage® is the set standard of care in the world's elite militaries, this version of the Emergency Bandage® contains TWO non-adherent 6" wound pads in one device. This style of bandage features a pressure bar that allows the bandage to be wrapped around a wound in different directions. After engagement of the pressure bar, wrapping the leader in any direction around the limb or body part and onto the pressure bar forces the pressure bar down onto the pad creating the direct pressure needed to bring about homeostasis. In addition to treating conventional, abdominal, amputations, and entrance/exit wounds, the bandage facilitates the cleaning, packing, covering, and compressing of single and multiple wounds.

The Emergency Bandage® is compact, lightweight and waterproof, making it the perfect addition to any first aid kit, first responder bag or for military/war zone first aid. Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously.
