Lose the tampons. That is a myth they don’t work. Get roll gauze and pack

Or quickclot z folds

Is the gauze I have good for that?

Top left and far right top package.

It’s better than tampons

Lol

This is what we were taught to use on the river for punctures

Is the back clear to seen it?

It’s basically cheesecloth like material but 3in wide and like 13 ft long. U just start using one finger and push it in with gentle but moderate force til it’s full. Then use the additional to cover the wound and then apply a pressure dressing or quick clot sponge

That’s only in the event of a deep torso puncture tho.

I think I have some of that. Only one or 2 tho

Ur basically filling the hole made by whatever so that it’s not a continuous bleed and will seal. It’s still gonna have to be removed by a surgeon or actual medical professional and be treated

Should you use quick clot first?

I can’t answer that with confidence because we are talking about gunshot trauma and I usually fill holes from tree branches

We need @Itcilis

Yep my knowledge hit an edge and I’m not gonna spout bs that could kill someone

For a cut or grazing wound I would say yes then cover the wound. Basically if it’s not a hole u stick ur finger in but more of a piece missing off the edge from a kinda hit kinda miss.

But a hole idk if it would cause more trauma to put the clotting agent in then the gauze or if u do it the other way around

Just got on site what’s up

Alright for combat here’s how it is.

Check out FAK pics I posted. Need pointers on an budget

With a gunshot. If u have clotting agent and roll gauze do u pour the agent in first then pack or pack then cover with agent

Assuming we r of the poor and don’t have the fancy gauze that does both

Ah

So like powder

You poor the powder in them use regular guaze for pressure

I have the gauze and the powder

Powder the gauze

Then

Just one of each tho

Ok so no wound packing if u have the gauze

Or the powder I mean

Yeah if it’s just one gauze that you have I’d pour the powder then pack the wound

I have went through 3 rolls of gauze on a single wound. Take it at that
