What Is the Purpose of a Wound Packing Trainer?
Wound packing is a technique used to manage deep and severe wounds, and involves using a particular dressing (or packing) to fill dead spaces in the wound. Wound packing can help to absorb drainage and prevent the wound from closing before it the tissue can heal properly. A packing wound trainer offers a safe way and non-invasive way to demonstrate and practise this essential wound-care process.

- Doctors and Nurses
- General Practitioners

How Do I Apply and Use This Wound Packing Trainer?
There are various ways that this self-adhesive wound packing trainer can be used, allowing versatile training scenarios. The wound moulage can be easily applied to clean, dry skin or a medical manikin, and doesn't require any adhesives for application. If you wish to enhance the moulage's adhesive properties, for example for longer training sessions, you can use skin-safe adhesives such as the Erler-Zimmer Skin Glue (sold separately).
The packing trainer also comes with a tray, which can be used to contact the wound moulage while practising essential packing techniques. While this may not offer as much realism as applying the wound to skin or a manikin, this does allow more flexible group-training options.
How Does the Bleeding Function of This Artificial Wound Work?
The wound packing trainer features a bleeding function for effective training and practise. The tube connected to the wound moulage is designed to also be connected to the blood bag filled with artificial blood (both included) in order to simulate a real bleed. The blood bag can then be used to control the flow of blood out of the wound (e.g., by squeezing the bag).
