Safety First Aid HypaCover Large Sterile Dressings – 18 x 18cm – Pack of 6 (D7632PK6)

Description

Genuine Safety First Aid · Part no. D7632PK6

The Safety First Aid D7632PK6 is a pack of 6 large HypaCover sterile dressings, each an 18 x 18cm unmedicated pad on a conforming bandage, sealed in its own sterile wrap. They are made for larger cuts and grazes, cushioning the wound, soaking up fluid and covering it while the casualty is taken to hospital.

Good to know

• When is a large dressing the right one? For wounds too big for a plaster, such as a deep cut on the forearm or a wide graze; small cuts are easier with a plaster or small dressing.
• How do I put it on? Open the wrap without touching the pad, place it straight onto the wound, then wind the attached bandage round firmly enough to hold it but not so tight that the skin beyond goes pale.
• What if blood soaks through? Do not take the first dressing off; press on it and put a second one over the top, and get medical help for heavy bleeding.

Which one?

For small wounds the HypaCover Small Sterile Dressings (D7880PK6) or the HypaPlast plasters are easier; for eye injuries use the HypaCover Sterile Eye Dressings (D7889PK6).
