I’m an LPN going for my RN. You could apply pressure or even ice (vasoconstriction aka less blood flowing to the area) to stop the bleeding and then apply the steristrips. Cover with gauze and wrap. Soak the gauze and wrap with normal saline or wound spray to remove to avoid making it bleed when taking off.
Well I’ve seen different more dense applications that also work great . This way let’s too much tension on each one of the strips and results on having some unstick far too early
I just remove the end piece and place it on one side of the wound, then remove the backing as I pull it gently across to the other side. The three strips are then perfectly lined up. I see no point in doing one at a time or using tweezers. This way is easier and more efficient.

my Dr told me change it when they start to peel off. Also, she said I can shower with them. They can last like a few or more days. I have a UCSF Orthopedic Institute doctor, by the way.
I just busted my chin open and had to get it glued back together. I fell off of my scooter (max speed for it is 20 mph) and I have a huge road burn across my face, I injured my wrist and got a cut on my other hand, and I have a cut on my knee.
Because nothing binds well there. You are better off cleaning it with saline then applying a petroleum based antibiotic as a protectant. If you are trying to bind it, well you'll need a suture, basically 6# fishing line or one of those natural dissolving alternatives.

Thank you for your inquiry. The application of a topical antibiotic ointment could impact the adherence of 3M™ Steri-Strip™ Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures. Steri-Strip Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures should be applied to clean, dry skin to ensure adequate skin edge apposition.
Hi there - thank you for your comment. Per our indications for use: The incision/wound needs to be easily approximated. We would not recommend using 3M(TM) Steri-Strips(3M) Skin Closures on an incision that can not be easily approximated. Please let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you!
Hey, I know you're watching this because you also got a cut and afraid of stitches, or just looking for cheaper alternatives. We got this bois, we'll all heal 🙌
My surgeon removed stitches from my thumb. Finger still not closed. Gave me steri strips & said to change daily if they get wet. Seems he told me wrong. Who’s right? Anyone?
Hello - When adhesion cannot be obtained or is compromised due to the presence of moisture, 3M Steri-Strips should be considered for changing. Follow up with your surgeon if your wound is not closing and/or you are unable to avoid getting your 3M Steri-Strips wet. For more information on the product itself you can follow this link here (copy + paste): s.3m.com/tupupd
Hi there! Thank you for your inquiry. We do not recommend using past the expiration dates. After a time, the adhesive does break down and is not as strong.
Is there a negative result from placing a large 1 across/over the wound after applying a few to keep it closed? Obviously in real life the wound can continue to bleed and isn't a 3D computer image. This video provides no information for how to manage the bleeding etc. Overall I would have to say that the video is rather useless and only provides 1 simple step of the instructions for dealing with the wound. It would be much more helpful to provide a proper medical video of what to do with the wound from the starting point of it freshly cut and bleeding to the after care of the wound(on a real person, not a graphic or 3D computer model).
I think it is more that you can't always wait to completely stop the bleeding, or you might not have quick clotting supplies. Healing by primary intention really restricts what you can do, as the wound must be bound in the first couple minutes.
If its a stab wound, there's a chance that it will open up. You can use this to close the wound first to make it more manageable. Then, apply direct pressure. Apply a 5x9 gauze over the wound then wrap it tightly with a conforming gauze.

You don't want the sticky side to get in the wound. That isn't sterile. Another cheaper solution is butterfly bandage: th-cam.com/video/K5Lsw4bsjrQ/w-d-xo.html
When you come to this video desperately needing to stop the gushing blood, but you leave here dancing the Electric Slide.
Strips are not gonna stop anything close to gushing blood
These are for cuts not got heavy bleeding wounds
Made me laugh at least, though doubt I'll be electric sliding anytime soon 😂
Hey now
That's funny haha
I respect that 🐢
When you don’t know enough basic first aid forcing you to resort to TH-cam
Thanks 3m your strips stopped my sliced finger from bleeding out 😅
I thought we were supposed to apply them in alternating directions (one from above and one from below etc)
oh my, this music. "I love applying steri-strips!"
Will this stops the bleeding? If you have bleed even after this applied what would you do? Thanks

I think it has to do with not introducing infection or further risks. Maybe to keep distance and cleanliness
I just found those in my medicine cabinet, I was wondering what those were

Just I save my son's chin. Trauma 1,5cm.Thank you !🙂
I’m going through the same issue with my 5 yr old. Bust his chin in the pool doing some trick... ahhh
Did you purchase the white tape and just apply it? Is there any other tips that worked for you?
I just busted my chin open and had to get it glued back together. I fell off of my scooter (max speed for it is 20 mph) and I have a huge road burn across my face, I injured my wrist and got a cut on my other hand, and I have a cut on my knee.
arent steri strips not supposed to have direct contact to the wound? isnt it in this case touching the wound?
just tried it, the parts of the strip that are in contact with blood become slippery
@@panicattack8284 that’s why the area needs to be completely dry before applying these. You beed to stop the blood first.
How come there r no instructions for when the wound is between hair :/
Because nothing binds well there. You are better off cleaning it with saline then applying a petroleum based antibiotic as a protectant. If you are trying to bind it, well you'll need a suture, basically 6# fishing line or one of those natural dissolving alternatives.
I shaved the hair around the wound and it worked well.
I habe a question inhave strips on my wound been a week it starting tonhave a oder how do i clean it my wound is still open

Thanks!
These strips helped my moms first degree burn heal faster because it was open for so long lol thanks
Glad they helped! Hope she's safe and healing well! 🙌
Should antibiotical ointment be applied before these strips or after?
Thank you for your inquiry. The application of a topical antibiotic ointment could impact the adherence of 3M™ Steri-Strip™ Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures. Steri-Strip Reinforced Adhesive Skin Closures should be applied to clean, dry skin to ensure adequate skin edge apposition.
My dr applied it afterwards. But the ointment did make it less sticky
I can't close my wound completely with this as it is quite shallow and wide. Will it still help even if it's not completely sealed?

Ik this is old but if steri strips can't hold the skin together then it needs stitches..

how many days after we need to remove this strip?
SAJID KHAN don't remove it ever, it will fall off on its own after 5-10 days
ookay thank you sooo much
are this work like proline or silk stich?

Hi there! Thank you for your inquiry. We do not recommend using past the expiration dates. After a time, the adhesive does break down and is not as strong.

Ok ok ok I have steri strips on my head but a gross cut

Update this video from 240p. That is a resolution from the 17th century.
hi r/MoS
Oh no
O_O
o.O uhhhhh who is that
Maybe you'd say 3cm.
Tamilandaa
double sided tape works better. trust me
Worthy to try
not sterile tho.
You don't want the sticky side to get in the wound.
That isn't sterile.
Another cheaper solution is butterfly bandage: th-cam.com/video/K5Lsw4bsjrQ/w-d-xo.html
