Join ITS Tactical as we discuss the application of an Israeli Bandage. For more information, check out our detailed write-up with photos: bit.ly/pAVMp9
Just wanted to say thanks. After watching this video several months ago I bought one to put in my blow out kit. A few days ago I severely injured my knee in a chainsaw accident. I was able to stop the bleeding fast with this bandage and drive myself to an ER. Thanks again for a great video!
This product just saved my life. Had a torrential post surgery bleed once I was at home. Isreali bandage stopped the heavy venous bleed with ease as I was starting to feel light headed.
@@freedomridermorty4459, carry your stuff in gallon bags. Save the money on the vent bandages. For a sucking chest wound, you can use tape and the gallon bag. Save money and get multiple uses out of valuable space in your pack.
I always knew the Israelis did their history lesson well, here, the bandage they came up with... pure simplicity and utility. Anything you need in an emergency situation when you are shocked or under great stress. I bow to you whoever patented this.
How many of us have these, and NEVER needed/ used 1 ? Ok, me at least. So I like to drop in to review how to correctly use, as I foget things over time if I don't use the info. This was probably the shortest, yet best one I've viewed...thanks for posting it !
Been a EMT for 17 years and I struggle with all kinds of dressing and watching this video puts me in awe! That’s give me why couldn’t I have I thought of that! Definitely will be getting some for my jump kit
Thank you so much for this! I'm a truck driver that delivers primarily to Farmers in rural areas and recently took a CPR & first aid course just in case I ever come upon injuries. When I got my IFAK I found this Israeli bandage in there and had no idea what the heck it was or how to use it. Didn't want to open it and contaminate it. This is a great, straightforward, concise video. Greatly appreciated.
I would recommend that, after placing the absorbent pad over the wound, the first wrap should be above the wound, overlapping to the side of the cleat -- the second wrap should be below the wound, overlapping on the other side of the cleat -- and the third wrap should be through the cleat. This process will "seal" the wound area to prevent the incursion of infectious agents. Thereafter, the counter-pull on the cleat, the remaining wraps around the limb, and the securing of the loose end can proceed as usual.
I was given eight or ten of these about ten years ago. Have one in every bag and kit. Never had to use one, but at least now I know how to do it. Thanks
Such a clear and concise demo. I thought it would be difficult to apply but you explained it in terms that anyone can understand. I will offer a couple for my first aid kit today! Thank you!
I appreciated the video. I bought some of these for a trauma/first aid kit I put together to keep in the trunk. I think this is the first video I have seen that went through the entire process, starting with opening the package. I feel more prepared now should I ever need to use one.
I got in a nasty car accident one time and had a deep cut on my thigh. Thank goodness I had my IFAK on my belt. I put a double Quik Clot trauma dressing right on it, then put the Israeli over the top of it to really pack it tight. Worked like a charm!!!
We had these issued in Iraq. The Israeli's make great gear for military use. They also created the Chitosan bandage which is impregnated with a blood clotting agent; excellent for use on arterial wounds.
Thanks for posting this. I read up on best wound bandages, and this one got top compliments. I bought a few for my personal med kit but had no idea how to use it. Now I do!
Invaluable for any first aid kit. Seeing such an improvement from what was used years ago, I realize that I'm way behind the times, especially in first aid training (basic), the last class I took was over 30 years ago. Time to update my three kits and training so I can again live up to "Be prepared".
From the UK, ('RM') & in the process or creating an interest lecture for a course. My subject from no choice of my own was the FFD (1st Field Dressing)....Good effort on this video. Perfect demo! Very helpful & very well explained, cheers. Please keep em' coming whatever the subject.
Just got the news ones. The first video I watched (yours) makes perfect sense. No long-winded instructions, but the Why-For's explained. Thank you. Subbed.
@A B Israel*, and not everything is Paid by US money. The company that was creating those, also was sold about 20 years ago to an American company, so it paid it self over and over again and saved many lives. You're welcome.
Very good info. Thanks much for posting. As a former paramedic and RN this is very useful info. Most grateful for your efforts to help us learn about this new dressing. Respectfully,
Just been given a couple of these bandages but didn't know the correct way to use one. I do now, thanks for taking the time to make this informative vid. Cheers.
I have the civvie version of this dressing (white package, white bandage), and your video is a great resource to view every six months or so to keep the drill for applying it fresh -- in case, which God forbid, I should have to use one. Thank you.
Great video, I have several for an emergency but have never seen one applied. Will save valuable time by knowing how it works without figuring it out during a crisis.
For those that are potentially confused about Desert MARPAT MCCUU, it stands for Desert Marine Pattern (MARPAT) Marine Corps Combat Utility Uniform (MCCUU).
Thank you. I'm a truck driver and I come upon many accidents (or cause them according to eye witnesses). I am building up a medical kit, and I saw these, but not sure how to use them. So I now know, and will be adding these.
That way, you also don't allow oxygen for the aera to breathe. Maybe you are right though, because I speak simply from experience with smaller wounds and other similar bandages, that didn't allow the wound to close, because it didn't breath. Again, I may be wrong
I never knew how these worked so never bought any... but now that I do (thx 2 U) I'll have to buy some! I appreciate you taking the time to show us how these are used. I sub'd!
@Marty32, Thanks. That makes a lot of sense. Exit wounds will be larger and messier than entry wounds. I imagine that most GSWs treated by EMTs these days are from pistols, and with "self defense" ammo, you wouldn't always get an exit wound. I think a hit from a rifle using FMJ ammo would be far more likely (but perhaps not always) to produce an exit wound. Anyway, I guess I was thinking of them as "military" style bandages. Thanks for the tip.
Thanks! I just ordered some of these (I take it this is the 4" version with the single gauze pad?) as well as the 6" version and was looking for a good instructional video. This was concise yet detailed enough to demonstrate the entire process, perfect demonstration.
Israeli Bandages are really useful pieces of equipment, they can pull multiple duties and are passable is several areas. Well worth owning, and more so, training with! Well done.
I have one of these in my IFAK, and this demo video made knowing how to use it simple and intuitive, much moreso than the directions on the packaging. Hopefully I won't ever have to use it real-world, but it's good that I know how should the need arise.
Feb. 7, 2019---Thank you for a clear and concise video. I have a lot of gauze pads, etc., but not one of these. Seen 'em on Ebay, but no idea how big they were or how to use 'em. Now I do.
What the ETB/ETD/Isreali is good for is wrapping wounds you already packed and you wrap that thing as tight as you possibly can. I as a medic wrap from down to up or distal to proximal to reduce the chances of compartment syndrome and I wrap over the sides to ensure no dirt can come in and that the packing stays in.
Just wanted to say thanks. After watching this video several months ago I bought one to put in my blow out kit. A few days ago I severely injured my knee in a chainsaw accident. I was able to stop the bleeding fast with this bandage and drive myself to an ER. Thanks again for a great video!

@@Thenebrosity buddy asks 7 and a half years later too
Some say he's still driving to this day

I have them, but I'm on a budget and can't afford to open one without using it, so it's very helpful to see it in use. Thanks

Thank you for your Service young man.
This is by far one of the best explanations and demonstrations I have ever scene for these. Thank you!
Aside from the intro there’s basically no fluff. I skip to 1:20 in every video to get past the bullshit. Big thanks to delivering info, as-needed.

Wow, what an incredible improvement over the field dressings of olden days. Such simple improvements make it so much more effective.

Thanks for the demo, my friend. These battle dressings have really evolved since I used them in Vietnam as a young hospital corpsman.
Did you carry tampons?
wish more youtube videos were as concise as this.
I was given eight or ten of these about ten years ago.
Have one in every bag and kit.
Never had to use one, but at least now I know how to do it.

Short, sweet, and to the point. Well thought out. Well demonstrated. Especially thnx for opening instructions. Fore warned is fore armed.

Perfect. Straight to the point.
Some videos recommend wrapping the excess elastic half width above and below center. To protect from dirt getting under the bandage.
That way, you also don't allow oxygen for the aera to breathe. Maybe you are right though, because I speak simply from experience with smaller wounds and other similar bandages, that didn't allow the wound to close, because it didn't breath. Again, I may be wrong
It will also limit the tourniquet effect of tightly wrapping one narrow spot.
I never knew how these worked so never bought any... but now that I do (thx 2 U) I'll have to buy some!
I appreciate you taking the time to show us how these are used.

Hello from 2024, wife and I are learning civi field medic and this was extremely helpful so thank you!
@Marty32,
Thanks. That makes a lot of sense. Exit wounds will be larger and messier than entry wounds. I imagine that most GSWs treated by EMTs these days are from pistols, and with "self defense" ammo, you wouldn't always get an exit wound.
I think a hit from a rifle using FMJ ammo would be far more likely (but perhaps not always) to produce an exit wound. Anyway, I guess I was thinking of them as "military" style bandages. Thanks for the tip.
Nice video, as I have now got some Israeli dressings. Have subbed
What a great idea for a dressing. Thanks for the video.
These things are awesome!
First time seeing this. A marvellous bit of engineering
Great video, thank you. Looks much better than my old pressure dressing issued in the 90's.
