If you're curious about this, you can watch this video on making duct tape pull tabs for medical gear. In 1990–1991, the idea and the design were developed enough to apply for Israeli Government support from the Office of the Chief Scientist in the Ministry of Industry. The application allowed Bar-Natan to become a part of a technology incubator program in Jerusalem's Har Hotzvim, with a government grant covering 3/4 of the expenses connected to the research and development of the bandage. [1] After three additional years of development the bandage was ready for commercialization. [1] However, Bar-Natan formed First Care Products Ltd and supervised the design and production of the bandage. Next, wrap the bandage around the arm and insert it into the pressure applicator clip. That’s the pressure clip. Thread the bandage through that, utilizing the gap in the top of it to do so. In this article we will examine the use of Israeli bandages, tourniquets and haemostaic /clotting bandages.

Pressure dressing is one approach to controlling bleeding. It's not always the first choice, though. Other options include applying a tourniquet or manual pressure. Newer versions, such as T3 and the 9T, include features such as gauze for additional wrapping, extra pads, abdominal pads to cover eviscerations, and moisture seals to cover wounds and burns.

pressure points. A little more complicated here but basically find a pulse point which is closer to your heart than the wound. For example: A wound to your hand could be controlled by applying pressure on the artery feeding the wound. The brachial artery on the inside of your elbow, for example. You can find the pulse there now if you feel for it. It is at the antecubital fossa, you know, where they take blood.

Upon immigrating to Israel in 1979, Bernard Bar-Natan was soon drafted into the military in 1983. During his service, he realized that the treatment of injured soldiers on the battlefield could use some serious improvement.

Tie the support bandage, but do not tie it so tight that it stops blood flow around the wound. You should be able to slip a pinky into the bandage.Also FINALLY got to try super glue when i decided to try drilling the tip of my finger with a razor sharp forsner bit. (Thanks for keeping your tools sharp dad ;) elevate. Use gravity to your advantage. Try to get the wound higher than the level of your heart. The blood pressure at the wound will be incrementally less. Helps with clotting. Here's how you do it: First, find the loop near the gauze pad (it should be just in front of the pressure applicator). Slide the injured extremity into the loop and pull the loop up over the wound. Then, wrap the wound as you normally would. The dressing itself unfolds conveniently with the pad on one side and the pressure bar on the other.
