Basic Wound Packing

Learning to control massive bleeding from a person suffering a severe injury is extremely important and can be the difference between their survival or demise. Injuries that can cause massive bleeding don’t just occur in areas where tourniquets can be applied. For wounds that are heavily bleeding in the junctional regions, including around the groin and axilla areas, simply holding direct pressure may not be enough. This is where wound packing will be applicable.
Wound packing can also be used in conjunction with tourniquets depending on the circumstances. It is recommended to pack into the wound cavity with some type of medical gauze, whether or not it’s impregnated with hemostatic agent or not. However, a gauze that also contains a hemostatic agent with a substance like kaolin has been shown to, even if slightly, have some efficacy in helping to stop the bleeding especially with other bleeding control techniques. Research and develop a plan to acquire wound packing gauze and seek out training to learn more about bleeding control.
