It’s too difficult and takes time to strap by self. When you need to put on a bandage, but there is no one there to help you, winding needs to be done alone with only one hand when assuming that the other hand is injured. If you do it by yourself, it is hard to wrap and it and takes time. It’s also troublesome to fasten bandage and put tourniquet over it. In some cases, you would rather just consider going to hospitals to get a bandage. But with Medi-Tie, It’s easy and saves time. When you get injured, Medi-Tie can save time and shorten the whole processes during strapping. The process of winding bandage is firstly wrapping, then fixing bandage and last adding tourniquet to pull the ties. Pulling ties is not only to adjust size but to combines hemostasis, compression at once effectively. These processes can be done easily when Medi-Tie is in use.. From these benefits, the patient can save time to wrap, fix bandage and add tourniquet. And what’s more, cable ties which are considered minor and cheap can saves lives that considered precious and uncountable!
