SLISHMAN PRESSURE WRAP
Designed by Dr. Sam Slishman, an emergency physician, the Slishman Pressure Wrap (SPW) is intended for both trained medics and untrained civilians. The SPW is a lightweight, compact, and highly versatile pressure dressing designed to manage a wide range of injuries. Available in black or orange, it features a distinctive red slip sleeve that forms a lasso for easy cinching and secure application around an injured limb. Ideal for IFAKs, go-bags, or comprehensive first aid kits, the SPW is a must-have in both civilian and tactical settings.
Suitable for adults, children, and pets, the SPW is trusted in marine and veterinary environments as well. It can be used to protect wounds, secure splints, or stabilize injured extremities. Made from soft, elastic materials, the wrap is easy to apply—even for untrained responders—and allows for adjustable pressure to help control bleeding or reduce pain.
