Abstract | Context: Uncontrolled hemorrhage is a major cause of preventable death. Wound care and managing external hemorrhage are important skills for athletic trainers. Objective: Describe a laboratory activity used to allow students to practice managing uncontrolled external hemorrhage and wound packing. Background: The prevalence of active shooter and other mass casualty events has grown, and a trend to move military-based emergency skills into civilian casualty care has emerged. Athletic trainers are uniquely positioned to respond to catastrophic events at the time of injury. Controlling hemorrhage and rapidly applying a tourniquet or administering wound packing have a great effect in preventing death due to severe hemorrhage. Description: An educational technique using a pork shoulder was implemented to provide students with experience in wound packing. Clinical Advantage(s): Students describe this activity as a beneficial way to gain experience on an important skill not often seen in the clinical education setting. Conclusion(s): Faculty may consider implementing wound packing using a pork shoulder as a laboratory activity when teaching wound care and external hemorrhage management. (As Provided). |
