The BTC18 is a tactical emergency compression bandage, based on the IDF standard design, essential for hemorrhage control in battlefield or law enforcement interventions. This "all-in-one" device combines a sterile dressing, pressure applicator, and closure bar, allowing for immediate and effective treatment of open wounds, even with one hand. Made with non-adherent materials to protect the wound, it is the most versatile first-response tool for both tactical and civilian environments.
BTC18 Tactical Emergency Compression Bandage - IDF Type (15x450 cm)
The BTC18 bandage, based on the IDF technical design, is currently the benchmark for tactical combat casualty care (TCCC). Its ingenious design allows it to replace multiple first-aid kit components in a single compact device, facilitating the immediate treatment of open wounds with a risk of hemorrhage.
Fast and Self-Sufficient Application
The main advantage of the BTC18 is its simplicity: it can be applied quickly by anyone, including the casualty themselves in self-aid situations, without the need for advanced medical training. Its system allows it to function as a compression bandage and, in some cases, provide mechanical pressure reinforcement.
Operational Advantages
- Non-adherent pad: Prevents the dressing from sticking to the wound, eliminating the risk of causing further damage or reopening the tissue upon removal.
- Integrated pressure applicator: Allows for immediate focused pressure directly over the bleed site.
- Professional closure bar: Fastening system that eliminates the need for clips, pins, or knots, maintaining constant pressure during casualty evacuation.
- Double sterile packaging: Ensures maximum hygiene and keeps all components in their optimal position until use.
