Interesting, I have never been taught or heard to put gauze under the plastic for a hasty chest seal!
Just plastic and tape all four sides or use a purpose made vented chest seal such as a hyfin or halo.
Good info regardless of slightly different techniques! 🤙
ive seen it taught in both versions. i learned this way in the army as a combat medic. everything has different techniques i suppose.
Yea I know different things come and go depending on what studies were done and how they were interpreted!
They may well be teaching it just like this since the last CLS/TCCC course I took a year or so ago right before I got out. I've been too focused on nursing school to stay 100% up to date on the current guidlines👍
well i was taught this style back in 2000 in army lol so your style sounds to be the newest version :)
Well, at any rate, I think either version is gauranteed to be better than doing nothing!
