Massive Hemorrhage

OLAES Modular Bandage 4" Flat
OLAES 4 Flat Bandage is a bandage used to stop major external bleeding in combat conditions.

The OLAES bandage has a thick gauze pad that has an integrated gauze that can be removed and used to fill the wound using the "woundpacking" method and a plastic pressure applicator that directs the pressure of the elastic bandage directly onto the wound, making it significantly more effective than conventional pressure bandages.

The shape of the plastic applicator has the shape of a semi-sphere and is therefore ideal for treating gunshot wounds. It can also be removed and used as an Eye Shield when treating head injuries. The gauze pad also contains an airtight cover for improvised pneumothorax treatment.

Advantages over Israeli-type bandages (Emergency bandage) - Simpler pressure applicator design / Integrated gauze / Thicker gauze cushion / Use as an eye shield / Airtight coverage / Flat shape

Compressed gauze Z-Fold
Vacuum-compressed gauze for filling the wound using the "woundpacking" method. It makes it possible to stop even massive bleeding from places where tourniquets cannot be used, such as the groin, neck, or armpits. The gauze is folded in a way that allows it to be quickly unrolled when filling wounds using the Woundpacking method.

Airway

NPA FR28
A nasopharyngeal airway (NPA) is a thin, clear, flexible tube that is inserted into a patient's nostril. The purpose of the NPA is to bypass upper airway obstruction at the level of the nose, nasopharynx or base of the tongue.

Respiration

Chest Seal Beacon Vented Kit size
The Chest seal is intended for the treatment of open chest injuries - Pneumothorax. The adhesive hydrogel is often strong to adhere to skin that is contaminated with blood, hair, sand or water. Large 6 inch round shape for optimal coverage area.
