Bandaging rules

Fundamentals of First Aid (OPMP)

In the moment dressing the patient should be given the most comfortable position in which the pain does not increase. Bandaging should be done with both hands. During the application of the bandage, the bandage must be deployed from left to right, while the head of the bandage will, as it were, roll off the tours of the bandage. Each subsequent round should cover 1/2 - 1/3 of the width of the previous one. It is necessary to bandage according to the plan, using any standard bandage.

The applied bandage should not cause circulatory disorders in the limb, which is manifested by blanching of the limb below the bandage, the appearance of cyanosis of the limb, a feeling of numbness or throbbing pain. Such a bandage must be immediately corrected or a new one applied.

The main types of bandages are: circular, spiral, eight-shaped, returning (Fig. 61).

Bandaging rules

Rice. 61. Types of bandage dressings: a - spiral with the "kink" technique; b - spiral with kinks on the forearm; c - spike-shaped on the shoulder joint; g - returning to the brush; d - diverging at the knee joint; e - converging on the elbow joint; g - eight-shaped for the ankle joint; the numbers indicate the order of applying bandage tours

Widely used mesh-tubular bandages - elastic mesh-tubular medical bandages, designed to fix medical bandages on any part of the body.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Robot tightrope walker 01.09.2007

A robot in the form of a box on wheels travels around electrical cables, checking their condition.

The temperature sensor allows you to identify places where the cable is heated, acoustic - finds by sound the points where the contacts spark; there is also a moisture sensor that finds those places where water has penetrated the cracks in the insulation and can cause a short circuit. The TV camera transmits everything that enters the field of view of the robot to the control panel. In addition, the robot is equipped with a gyroscope to help maintain balance, and levers with which it restores its position if it does fall off the cable.

The robot was created at the University of Washington by a group of engineers and students led by Professor Alexander Mamishev. The robot was recently tested in New Orleans, where it checked the condition of underground cables after flooding caused by Hurricane Katrina.
