Featuring all the benefits and unique features of the TraumaFix dressing above, the Military version is packaged to allow for the specialised environment in which it is likely to be used. The package itself is manufactured from a waterproof fabric that protects the dressing under extreme conditions. Thoughtful design is evident from the distinctive green camouflage packaging, a colour that is carried through to the dressing itself allowing a serious wound to be dressed and camouflaged simultaneously. A single-use, sterile product, carefully designed for a serious job.

Picture the scene, a major bleed injury, perhaps involving multiple bleeds. What do you have in your crash bag to deal with it?

TraumaFix® is a new patent-protected dressing. It offers a substantial, highly absorbent dressing pad, capable of absorbing over ten times its own weight in fluid. A pressure bandage allows direct pressure to be applied quickly and maintained easily, this is secured instantly with a Velcro-style fastening.

Ambulance dressings have their place, but they are woefully inadequate for this job, they are simply not substantial enough to cope with the bleed, and bandaging to apply enough pressure will be near impossible with a light conforming. Abdo-pads might be substantial enough to cope with the bleed, but they need a suitable pressure bandage to attach them, which then needs to be secured, this sounds very time-consuming, difficult with one injury, dangerous with multiple bleeds.

All too often non-sterile sanitary towels are used as major bleed dressing pads. Typically these contain super-absorber powders that clot to gel on contact with blood. Just one grain of this powder has the capacity to cause a deadly blood clot if it were to ingress into the casualties venous system.

Multiple major bleed injuries can be stemmed quickly, allowing the casualty to be moved easily. The dressing is a significant advance in the treatment of trauma injuries.
