EVERLIT Israeli 6 Inch Emergency Bandage Compression Trauma Pressure Wound Dressing Sterile Vacuum-Sealed Packaging for Bleeding Control, Medical Trauma Kit, Gun Shot, First Aid IFAK

Very well made and the packaging should hold up well without tearing inadvertently. On the advise of a friend who is a nurse I did open one to practice - he said brands can be a bit different and to make sure you are familiar with them BEFORE you need them. These are easy to use and they didn’t appear to cut corners so now I feel comfortable buying more of this brand to keep a couple in vehicles and such.

The Israeli bandage is a must have for real first aid to dress open wounds or aid in controlling bleeding. An IFAK isn't an IFAK without it. This bandage is a well known combat dressing, but there is a small learning curve. Therefore, I recommend actually using one; consider an extra for training purposes just to familiarize yourself with it before you NEED one. On a separate note, I would recommend seeking additional training through the Stop The Bleed program if you can. Israeli bandages, a dedicated tourniquet, some packing, and a little training will go about as far as normal humans can to control bleeding without higher levels of medical training and equipment. HIGHLY Recommended.

Sealed sterile. Perfect size for larger wounds. Great price.

Always nice to have on hand for addition to my first aid kits

This is good value, but I wish that the clip was not super cheap plastic, and I would prefer to have the elastic with more elasticity. In a pinch this is still an effective product, as the clip is not a necessity when compression is the goal. Pull it tight and secure it another way if needed.

They seem to be good quality but I have not needed to use them to try them out.

Look like a good product. Won't know until I have to use it. Should always be a part of your gear bag

Thankfully never had to use one but they arrived on time and were a key component in my trauma response kit
