- North American Rescue makes several different variations of the ETD pressure dressing but it's not always clear what the differences are. We Hope to clear that up and show several pressure dressing variations in this video along with two other styles of pressure dressings on the market at the end of the video.

Great comparison, when I was in the Army, I couldn't really see how a vacuumed sealed pressure dressing could expire....unless I was the one with the contract with the military. Really great video on what is available out there for medical pressure bandages.
Thanks. Yeah, I do think companies trying to make extra money and be able to sell more product influences the expiration dates to some degree but I also get that the packaging breaks down over time and the stuff inside is no longer clean and sterile. So I prefer equipment without the date but then I just check to make sure its still in tact and good to go.
Nice review and comparison. As far as the plastic clips, I was taught that In addition to securing, it can be slid under a layer of bandage and twisted similar to a windlass to help increase pressure.
For a police officer like myself, the HH is the best one. We're already out of room trying to carry stuff, so most officers started putting their stuff on the small of their back. By the time you got gauze, chest cheal, naso it gets pretty thick and makes it very uncomftrable to sit in the car. the HH is so small and flat it barely adds more thickness. I figured for most situations in policing, you are just trying to get to the ambulance or hospital by peers to get wrapped up better or fixed. I'm not in a combat zone so the small size really helps. 4" is good enough for a stab or gunshot would. I highly suggest law enforcement with limited space look at this option.
It certainly is the easiest to carry. It just doesn’t offer much to work with if bandaging a larger person.
This video is so underated, very helpfull thanks guys
I like the h+h mini.
You must know: it's not only smaller in size but also smaller in length.
More bandage needs more space.
My smallest Kit contains
1 H+H mini compression dressing
1 plain packing gauze
1 SWAT-T
1 4by4
Bandaids
Gloves rescue blanket
I like the Velcro on the ETD and the OLAES.
Not only it prevents the bandage from unrolling, it also helps to maintain pressure on the wound.
Yes, the ETD is a good bandage and I agree on the usefulness of the Velcro.
Thanks for the comparison. I'm in the process of building / rebuilding all my first aid and trauma kits for home, off road / camping, & range. Didn't realize the "responder" has no exp date even thought both products are sealed. Hopefully I'll never have to use them but its not about "if", but more about "when". Thanks for posting!
Absolutely! There are so many different variations out there. It’s hard to keep track of what is what. And most of the websites don’t do a good job of explaining exactly what each one looks like when you open the package. Glad this video was helpful.
Mini H Bandage is a little over 8.00 on there website. I love the small packaging. But the NAR bandages have been my go to for years.
Oh wow. Price has gone up then since I purchased them.
I don't see anyone on a scene telling the person who is bleeding, I'm sorry. I 2as going to put this one u, but I see it's expired. Person that's bleeding isn't going to care. Yes, we should remember to check but sometimes as humans we forget. So let's figure out why.they have a date and see if they'll fix it. Greta video as always.
Also the sizing one could mark for children.
Yeah, but if they got an infection or worse they or the family might try to sue. Sounds totally stupid but it happens. A lot.
The issue of expiration dates never occurred to me when I was building a personal inventory for home/vehicle use. I can see how this is an issue for government agencies, hospitals, clinics…but is it critical for the individual? For myself, checking the package seal is something that’s now on the checklist. Great topic. Thanks 👍🇺🇸
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, exp dates can be a liability issue for professional services. Not as much of an issue for people that want to have some on hand for personal emergencies. Making sure the packages are in tact is the most important aspect.
Compressed gauze is just rolled gauze but in a vacuum-packed square
Thanks for the video! I have a variety of ETDs and fortunately haven't had to use them yet, but always wanted to know what the difference was between them.
There ya go! Glad this video helped.
Can you do a video comparing NAR's SPEAR and their ARS needles?
The expiration date is really only for the external packaging. Basicly it guarantees the packaging will stay vacuum sealed hence sterile until the printed date, unless damaged. Now if it had an integrated hemostatic agent in it like the Oleas hemostatic bandage then yes, it would expire.
TY this is very informative, NAR truly has a LOT of variants, first time I understood the difference, I've only seen the classic ETD. OLAES is something very interesting as well, it's almost like a whole medkit, has packing gauze there, some piece of plastic you can use as a seal, then a pressure/eye cup, all in one thing, you can have only this single item that can actually save someone.
Duct tape will work wonders! Its in all my blow out kits/IFAKs!
GREAT CHANNEL
Hear me out… I wish there is a way to purchase “expired” medical equipment (not medicine). It would be nice to train with the equipment I carry without spending the money for two kits, one training and one for use.
I only really know what my current dressing looks like because of a TH-cam video.
Anyway, love the video. Thank you for the comparison.
Totally get it. But packing gauze is $4 new and the ETD is $4.10 on our website. So for less than $10 you have a basic wound packing training setup.
@@SixEcho Good point. Can’t afford not to.
Tac med solutions I believe still sells training bandages at a reduced price
This is a very helpful video. I am new to a lot of this, and didn't realize there were differences in the Israeli bandage and other pressure dressings. I thought they were exactly the same, only packaged differently.
Also, I am curious if you know which size is most commonly used or is most likely to be needed for most wounds?
Awesome! Glad it was helpful. 4” and 6” are most common. 6” is a good size if you have space for it. If space is limited then opt for 4”.
Which is a good brand for Israeli? Is Persys Medical good?
Yeah, PerSys should be fine along with other suppliers that specialize in producing actual trauma supplies. Just don’t buy them from a hospital supply company.
Great video, have you used a t3 in anger?
In anger? Can’t say that I have lol
Sorry I was talking Brit. The T3 Israeli has wound packing gauze as part of it components. I carry a couple mainly for stab wounds. London is a bit like that but not used them. Just wondered if you had experience using them. Would I be better to carry separate bits. I have been thinking they might be a bit to complicated when you are under pressure trying to plug a hole.
👍👍👍

six ehoe read this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is the truth
the problem with buying from yall or any other company is that you charge more for delivery than the products worth, not every body wants or can't afford loads of products at
the same time and thats if you even offer free shipping after a certain amonut which i don't see
if i were to buy just one product, i have to pay a shit load for delivery here's an example:
( i went to your on line store - and put Mini Module for $12.00 in cart with shipping and tax it went to $21.17 thats almost twice the price) not to mention having to wait a week for delivery
does that seem fair to your customers
amazon sells the same product at same price - minus the shipping cost if your prime. ( PS: i'm prime for many reasons ) so in short you's should really review your shipping
costs if you want more customers and until then i'll be buying for amazon 👎👎👎👎👎
Our products are not available on Amazon so you would have to buy them direct from us if you wanted those specific products. But yes, Amazon has cheaper shipping than we do. But we don’t charge an annual subscription and when you buy from us you are supporting a US patriot and a small family business. The product sales to our customers allow us to continue to put out free TH-cam videos and information to the public. If you can’t pay $8 for shipping then you can shop somewhere else. It’s a free county. For those that choose to support our small business and help fund these TH-cam videos, thank you!
Amazon doesn't sell any of these. 3rd party sellers on Amazon do, and Amazon is garbage, so that's who you are supporting.
I suggest you ask an Israeli how to use their bandage. You are not using it correctly
This video is so underated, very helpfull thanks guys
