The HemGuard Flat 6" Pressure Bandage brings HemGuard's 4-way redirection and mechanical advantage to a slimmer, flatter design. Its flat pressure bar works like a traditional Hartmann-style emergency bandage, giving a lower profile that packs easily into IFAKs, pouches and compact bleed control kits.


Product Description

Not every kit has room for a bulky trauma dressing. The HemGuard Flat 6" Pressure Bandage keeps HemGuard's proven wrap control in a slimmer package. In place of the raised targeted pressure head, it uses a flat pressure bar that functions much like a traditional Hartmann-style emergency bandage. You can redirect the wrap over the bar to build compression over the wound and lock the dressing in place.

The wide 6" pad covers large wounds, and the 4-way redirection system helps anchor the dressing on difficult areas such as the groin, axilla, shoulder and amputated limbs. It suits paramedics, military and tactical teams, law enforcement, industrial teams and trained civilians who need a dependable pressure bandage in a smaller footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the HemGuard Flat 6" Pressure Bandage?

The HemGuard Flat 6" Pressure Bandage is a slim, low-profile trauma dressing with a flat pressure bar and HemGuard's 4-way redirection system. It is designed to control bleeding while taking up less space in a kit.

How is the HemGuard Flat different from the standard HemGuard bandage?

The standard HemGuard Targeted Pressure Bandage uses a raised pressure head for maximum focused point pressure. The Flat version uses a flatter pressure bar, similar to a Hartmann-style emergency bandage, making it slimmer and easier to pack.

What is a Hartmann-style emergency bandage?

It is a traditional emergency trauma bandage with an elastic wrap and a pressure bar that the wrap is redirected over to build compression on the wound. The HemGuard Flat works in a similar way, adding 4-way redirection for difficult sites.

Can the HemGuard Flat be used on the groin or armpit?

Yes. The 4-way redirection system helps anchor the dressing on junctional areas such as the groin and axilla.

Can I use it over haemostatic gauze?

Yes. The HemGuard Flat can be applied over wound packing, such as QuikClot Combat Gauze, to maintain pressure and hold the packing in place.
