Universal Triangular Bandage PKU-01-MEDPLANT - Olive Green, Vacuum Packed

Description

The universal triangular bandage PKU-01-MEDPLANT is designed for immobilizing upper limb injuries at all stages of pre-hospital and medical care, including transportation and medical evacuation. It's ideal for securing splints or fixing the arm in cases of fractures, contusions, and sprains. Made from high-quality cotton fabric, its height is easily adjustable by tying the ends.

Application

Simply fold the injured limb at a right angle at the elbow. Place the limb slightly below the middle of the bandage, with the right angle pointing towards the elbow and the base resting on the chest along the body's axis. Raise the lower corner diagonally upwards towards the same shoulder, then raise the upper corner to the opposite shoulder. Securely tie both ends at the neck, ensuring proper limb positioning. Finally, tie the right angle pointing towards the elbow to form a pocket.

Uses

First aid, emergency medical services (EMS), military medicine, medical evacuation, ambulance services, and healthcare facilities (HCFs).

Intended Users

Medical professionals and individuals trained in first aid.

Indications

Immobilization and/or unloading of upper limbs following trauma or surgery at all stages of pre-hospital and medical care, including transportation and medical evacuation.

Caution

Insufficient fixation during transport may lead to bone fragment displacement in fractures and soft tissue trauma. Conversely, overly tight fixation can compromise blood circulation and nerve conduction. The olive green color offers excellent visibility in various environments. Vacuum packaging ensures sterility and prolonged shelf life.
