- How to pack a wound to the neck instructional video for first aiders. Not designed to replace formal first aid training we look at how to use wound packing to stop bleeding. Filmed during COVID 19 lockdown, so on a mannikin and no PPE worn.
This is exactly what the paramedics did for me a week ago today. Step by step. But they also had the advantage of tranexamic acid on scene at the same time which also made a massive difference.
The wound packing, surprisingly, didn’t hurt at all, but after the tourniquet had been extremely tightly wrapped around my neck and underarm for quite a while, it was excruciatingly painful!!!
By the time I got to hospital, I was screaming and desperately trying to pull it off.
The drs were wrestling with me because they needed more time before they felt safe to remove it and were trying to stop me.
They gave me morphine and it made zero difference to the pain. As soon as the ent surgeons arrived to look at the wound and take it off, it was instant relief.
But the paramedics saved my life and stopped me from bleeding to death using this method 😅.
Thanks for sharing this information, and I think I am proof that this method can save a life 😘
Thanks for sharing that experience with us. Glad you are still with us and in good spirits!
Thanks for sharing your story. Could you drop us an email with the details?

I'm here after Kentucky Ballistic's injury.
Glad to learn this life saving information.
Thank you good sir.
Glad to help
Good thing
There are people who upload these videos
They can be really essential in some circumstances
Thank you. Please share and let others know about our content.
Surely I would I already recommended that to my friends
I am seeing more and more stabs to the neck in domestics, street altercations etc. folks seem to know that this wounds fatality rate is extremely high. Thank you for this video
We are making a more detailed video about the public access Stop the Bleed kits, so watch out for that one.
For someone going into humanitarian safety programmes, this is very helpful
Thanks, good luck in your work.
Thanks, great video. I never thought about securing the same side arm, but it makes all the sense in the world.
Glad to help.
Watching this wishing somebody knew this, maybe he would be alive. My God.
who lol
The man from the Brisbane stabbing?
@@DocM. they say this stuff in the comments and dont even tell us what
@@MedicJey Ya I'm not sure, maybe its tough to talk about and it's just easier to unpack and talk about it online than in person.
But ever since I've seen that video I been looking everywhere for the correct First Aid procedures and I can't find anything really helpful. Direct pressure on the one side? Gauze packing? Or what, is it just a lost cause? Arms and legs we can tourniquet, but you can't exactly tourniquet or wrap a neck! 😂
No a brother in Christ who's son stabbed him in the neck and killed him.
We need to start watching ad, at least good ones. Life vac is a good one. I will invest!
Who's here after watching that stabbing in Brisbane?
Me
Me
We hope this has helped you understand what to do in similar situations.
Very good video sir!!!
Thank you!
Thank you for the video. It was very informative. I would like to ask a question. Doesn't packing the wound risk pushing the arteries shut? Or is there no (significant) risk of closing the other main blood vessels when packing the wound and bandaging it this way?
Im just a normal dude, with absolutely no expertise, but I think it may be fine because theres two arteries in your neck. I might be wrong.
@@techno6467 Thank you for your reply.
Yeah, I think one has to just accept the risk of closing the arteries. Not doing so will cause the victim to bleed out. I believe such a situation is called a "catch 22".
Sorry, we missed this question but someone @techno6467 has kind of answered anyway [thank you]. There are two "feeds" into the head on each side of the neck, so pressure on one, or even both on one side, still leaves some blood supply to the brain.
@@lazarustrainingltd8850 Thank you for your reply!
So if bloodflow on one side is cut off on one side for whatever reason, the other side will be able too keep the brain alive? Not that the patient is going to be happy with it, of course.
love these videos
Thanks. We hope to have more coming soon- so make sure to subscribe.
Excelente desde Panamá 👍
Thank you. Gracias
So you push the gauze into the wound?
Hi. That’s right- the pressure needs to be on the site of the bleeding. Putting a bandage over the top of this type of injury wouldn’t be that effective.
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Im watching this too late my friend is died. 2days ago nobody knows in a village to do first aid.
Thank yoy
We have been told not to pack neck wounds due to the risk of the obstructing the airway?
Hi, thanks for the question. It is our understanding that pressure/packing on one side of the neck wouldn't cause this problem. But as always watch the casualty!
Interesting stuff. Does back pressure from the bleed itself ever cause issues while attempting to pack the wound like that?
Interesting question, it's unlikely to as any the person is already "down" some blood, but I'll ask some of our sources.
الله يرحم نيرة اشرف
Will it heal itself
Assuming the person survives the initial injury, which is what our first aid advice is about, and doesn't suffer an infection then the body should heal the wound. It will take time, but the human body is amazing.
sorry for asking, can we do that without washing it first with sterile water or anything were we can sure there's no any dirty inside the wounds?
Hi, the wound will be dirty, but it's not for the first aider to clean at this time. Keep them alive and the medical facilty can clean it up and/or treat for infection.
does tgis stop blood flow to the brain?
Only marginally, as you have the other major blood vessels from the other side of the neck that provide sufficient flow
Hi, as Chris has already said, there are a number of blood vessels feeding the brain, not least those on the other side of the neck. If you don't stop the bleeding their situation will be a lot worse!
Got an add before the video, imagine if it was an emergency
We hope the ad wasn't too long, we hope that people are watching the videos to build their knowledge- not actually deal with an emergency!
Are you retarded?
