Uflex Self-Inflating Bandage

Uflex Self-Inflating Bandage
Nov-20-14
Designed with solo adventurers in mind, the Uflex inflatable bandage fits quickly around the wrist with one hand to help stop heavy bleeding.

The Uflex is a self-inflating compress covered on one side with non-stick gauze and embedded with retractable metal bands. It was designed to be as intuitive as possible, "considering the stress level of [the] users," and can wrapped around the wound one-handed, like a slap bracelet. The bandage's self-inflating fabric is made up of two compartments of polyol and isocyanate—two plastics that will automatically expand when mixed together—and the entire unit is held firmly in place with Velcro.
