Can the crinkle gauze be used to pack wounds?

[@MrQuackism]

Thanks for uploading this informative video. I have always wondered if I could use rolled gauze to pack wounds. Now i know!

good stuff

Hank you

What do you think about non-stick gauze vs standard gauze for wound dressing? Same amount of absorbency?

[@kessler003]

I would apply a non stick on a wound/burn/ulcer then some regular gauze pad, then some rolled gauze and tuck or tape it.

Can a crinkle kerlix gauze also be used to pack bleeding wounds like the rolled gauze?

[@kessler003]

In an emergency, almost anything you can find that absorbs blood can be used.

[@patrickdurham8393]

I keep maxi-pad feminine pads in my kit for bad wounds.

[@SixEcho]

Feminine products are designed to absorb blood. They are not meant to help hold pressure to stop bleeding. Highly recommend getting products designed to stop bleeding.

can i use 4x4 for bullet wound packing?

[@SixEcho]

The 4x4 is better for a smaller wound. A deep wound with arterial bleed needs a lot more gauze so rolled or Z-folded gauze is preferred here.

[@Pugrug.]

You could apply pressure with a gloved finger using the 4x4. I’ve seen and read about a few cases of people saving lives using quikclot 4x4 to apply direct pressure to an artery.
