MediTac Emergency High Strength Pressure Bandage Trauma Wound Dressing Hemostatic Control Bandage - 4 Inch

We all want to be prepared for emergencies. Although I hope I never need it but if I do, this is a quality Israeli bandage! Very nicely packaged for sterility and ease of packing into backpack, first aid kit, or go-bag. I have paid twice as much for these at other times. Detailed directions included.

Haven't used this pressure bandage for its intended purpose so I haven't opened the package. I just hope that the bandage does what it's supposed to do in case of an emergency. The only thing I can say about it is that it arrived in a timely manner and the bandage is inside a vacuum sealed package.

Thank heavens I haven’t. Had to use this, pray I never will. But if the world turns into a zombie apocalypse, I’ll be ready. Good company, back it’s product Thank-you. 👵🏻👵🏻🙏🩹🎈

Received 2 of these today. One for practice and the other for a kit. I used a queen sized pillow roughly equivalent to my own torso size. Followed the directions for abdominal injury. Coverage area is adequate however, IMHO, the lead is too short. It needs to be at least another 24 - 36 inches longer. The lead did cover the ends of the pad but after that there was little left to tuck into a previous wrap. IMHO, I wouldn't try using this on someone much bigger than myself and there are many who are. I'm 5'7" at 155lbs.I would also carry a couple of ABD pads for extra absorption and/or gauze for wound packing JIC. The instructions are clear not to apply pressure to the wound rendering the pressure bar rather useless unless truly needed. The plastic barrier mentioned in the advertisement turns out to be the 2nd interior plastic wrapping itself containing the bandage, which is fine, but took a couple of moments to figure that out.Overall, really like the idea, but again, IMHO, the lead is too short. What would be nice is if the current T3 bandage were to be offered in the 6" size instead of just the 4" size currently available. A 6" T3 bandage could easily cope with an abdominal wound just as well. As for the other bandage, it will go in a kit but will have to use a little discernment if it becomes an issue of use.

Its a dont die bandage ! If your first aid kit does not have atleast one of these and some quick clot then you have a toy box.
