Triangular Bandage, Single Use, 90cm x 127cm
A single use triangular bandage measuring 90 by 127 cm, used to make an arm sling, support a splint or provide a simple, quick wound covering.
The Triangular Bandage, Single Use is a large piece of bandaging material cut and hemmed into a triangle shape, one of the most versatile items in any first aid kit. At 90 cm by 127 cm, it is large enough to fold into an effective arm sling, to help hold a splint in place around an injured limb, or to be used as a broad, temporary covering over a larger wound or burn while more specific dressings are prepared.
Being a single use item, it is intended to be applied once and then disposed of, which suits the demands of infection control in clinical settings and avoids the need to launder and re-issue bandages between casualties. First aiders, paramedics, sports physiotherapists and workplace first aid kits commonly include a triangular bandage precisely because of this flexibility, since a single item can be adapted to several different first aid needs depending on how it is folded and tied.
The Triangular Bandage, Single Use is a straightforward, low cost addition to any kit that wants dependable sling and support material on hand.
