The Emergency Bandage (aka The Israeli Bandage) consolidates numerous wound treatments into a single unit and is essential for managing blood wounds resulting from Silky or chainsaw cuts:
- Non-adherent pad: Eliminates the risk of causing pain and having the wound re-open upon removal of the bandage.
- Pressure Applicator: Creates immediate direct pressure to the wound site.
- Secondary Sterile Dressing: Keeps the wound area clean and maintains the pad and pressure on the wound firmly in place, including immobilization of the injured limb or body part.
- Closure Bar: Enables closure and fixation of the Emergency Bandage at any point, on all parts of the body: no pins and clips, no tape, no velcro, no knots.
- Quick and easy application and self-application: Designed with the end-user in mind; for the first-aid trained and the lay caregiver.
- Significant per treatment time and cost savings.
Ease of Operation The Emergency Bandage has efficient blood staunching capability and offers ease of operation:
- The sterile, non-adherent pad is placed on the wound.
- Immediate direct pressure to the wound site is achieved by wrapping the elasticized woven leader over the topside of the bandage pad where the specially designed pressure bar is situated. The pressure bar is designed to readily accept and hold the wrapping leader.
- 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.
- The pressure bar also facilitates bandaging. The elastic bandage uses the rigid shape of the pressure bar to change direction while bandaging, providing more options for effective dressing of the wound.
- Subsequent wrappings of the leader secure and maintain the pad in place over the wound, covering all the edges of the pad to act as a sterile secondary dressing. The bandage leader is woven to remain at its full width and will not bunch up or twist itself into a rope.
- The closure system of the bandage is multi-functional yet simple, quick, and familiar. Situated at the end of the leader is a closure bar (dowel with hooking clips) at each end to secure the wrapping leader, similar to how a pen is secured in a shirt pocket. The closure bar holds the bandage securely in place over the wound site.
- 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. This rotation of the closure bar acts to further press down the pressure bar onto the wound to exert blood-staunching pressure. The closure bar is then used as before to secure the dressing.
