Stop the Bleed Month: How To Pack a Wound
This video focuses on emergency first aid, specifically the Stop the Bleed technique of wound packing to manage severe bleeding. Featuring Chris Hoyne from North American Rescue, the demonstration uses a training device to illustrate how to fill a wound cavity with gauze to apply direct pressure to the source of bleeding. The video highlights the use of NAR's Quick-Clot Combat Gauze, which contains a hemostatic agent. A strong emphasis is placed on maintaining continuous pressure and avoiding peeking to allow clotting. The content includes a disclaimer that this video is not a substitute for formal training, recommending official Stop the Bleed courses.
