RHINO RESCUE Sterile Compressed Gauze for Emergency Wound Dressing, First Aid and Trauma Kit, 6 Pack

I teach trauma first-aid classes and am always looking for aids to help teach my students in realistic scenarios. This gauze is an economical way for students to learn how z-fold gauze is used in packing wounds without breaking the bank.Buying compressed z-fold gauze is great, but if you ever need to actually use it then you need to be familiar with how to deploy it from the package. My students get a packaged gauze and a silicone trauma trainer so they can understand how to open the package and find the "end" of the gauze BEFORE they have to use it in an emergency. Teaching the thumb-over-thumb method is way easier using the real deal gauze. Students get some hands-on experience to help ingrain the knowledge and understand that just having the gauze doesn't mean you know how to use it.This is the same gauze that I keep in my personal IFAK and home first-aid kits. I trust it, I've trained with it and I've trained others with it. It's good stuff.

I haven't had to use these (thankfully) so I cannot speak to their effectiveness, but the bricks are very small and easy to pack into a bag, and they are air-sealed TIGHT light a brick. Overall I'd recommend these for your trauma kit.

Using these to stock both a general first aid kit and a Stop-the-Bleed kit that I've made for my vehicle. Good products. 6-pack included. Would buy these again.

I didnt give this a perfect score yet, because I have not used on a wound. I the gauze seems consitenet with the good ole US dressings and possibly the Israeli. I have three of these in my med kit now. Think they should do well.

Compressed gauze is extremely useful. You can wraps or pack wounds with it. The Rhino Rescue brand I've been using more and more of late and I'm impressed with their products especially for the price. The compressed gauze is a little more expensive than typical rolled gauze but its ability to add to IFAK, medical pouches or medical kits easily, taking less space with more gauze is really good.I've packed fake wounds in a class with this gauze and it stopped the hemorrhaging with 6 packs/rolled fingers with about 1/2 the compressed gauze to spare.This compressed gauze is individually sealed and takes little space. I highly recommend these for any IFAK or medical kit. Takes up a 2"x3" space with a little overhang from the packaging.

Packaged well and sold at a decent price. I hope to never need these, but I feel better having them. This type of bandage is one frequently used by the military and it does save lives.

Great product! Good quality!

Good item. As described
