North American Rescue Flat Emergency Trauma Dressing ETD (6 Inch) NAR Folded Sterile Elastic Bandage Wrap for Wounds, Pressure, Bleeding Control (30-0094)

I live in Manhattan & always have a backpack on me. This was just an add-on. Aready have a TQ & Z-pack gauze, gloves, etc, etc...so many stabbings & shooting on the subways & streets I'd rather be prepared..you'll bleed out before the NYPD or EMT shows up just from traffic alone. - Take a "stop the bleed" course..it's worth it for yourself & anyone you care about...or even a stranger.

I like that this thing is folded fairly flat. For everyday carry. I keep that in a small trauma bag. And I hope to never have to use it. But if it's there, I prefer that it stays flat.

Very well packaged. Promlt and easy transaction. Fortunately it is still in the wrapper. It is first aid equipment,after all, and I hope it never gets used.

Good quality for the price

Bought this to replace an Israeli bandage in my IFAK to help cut down on bulk. It's basically the same size. I'm more confident in the quality of an NAR bandage, so I'm keeping it, but be warned, it's still pretty bulky.

I'm not sure if this is from NAR because this one says it's made in Taiwan, has an EU designation on the product number and it doesn't say it's latex free. The picture shows one like my old one that says latex free and made in the USA. I've contacted NAR to see if it is indeed their product and not a knock off.**Update** I just got confirmation from NAR that this is indeed one of their products. It just comes from a different company. I'm changing my review to 5 stars.

North American Rescue has great products. This is a must have for any IFAK kit. While I haven't had to apply one of these in real life, I got a chance to see it in action in a simulated environment. It's well made and lived up to the hype that my field medic friends spoke about.

This fits I’m my man purse better than the rolled ones. Less bulk and lower profile for the edc bag I use.
