Blast Bandage

Description

DESCRIPTION

The blast bandage provides quick and effective way to cover large wounds such as amputations, abdominal injuries and burns. The blast bandage provides a 50cm x 50cm coverage, but packs to be approximately 10cm x 10cm.

Inside the bandage is a removable occlusive, plastic layer which is approximately 47cm x 47cm and can be used to cover the abdominal contents minimising heat and moisture loss. The non-adherent pad of the dressing can be easily applied and secured with the elastic bandage.

Velcro® ‘Control’ strips prevent the elastic roll from accidentally unravelling and secure the bandage throughout the application process. By providing multiple points of adhesion, the brakes prevent slippage of the elastic during the wrapping process. This creates a more secure, effective bandage and decreases the chance of the wound being exposed during movement.
