Introducing the Critical Injury Pack from the updated British Standard for workplace first aid, BS 8599-1:2019. This pack is specifically designed to enhance standard first aid kits in high-risk environments where there is a potential for serious traumatic injury.

The Critical Injury Pack includes specialized items not typically found in standard kits. HypaCover Trauma Dressings feature highly absorbent material and a convenient Velcro-style fastening, allowing first aiders to apply and maintain pressure while attending to other wounds. Chito-SAM Haemostatic Dressings are proven to clot blood quickly and effectively, surpassing the capabilities of standard pressure alone. SAM XT tourniquets are crucial for occluding bleeding blood vessels, preventing fatal blood loss in cases where regular wound dressings are insufficient.

Industries such as forestry, construction, aviation, and motorsport, where accidents can cause severe injuries to individuals or bystanders, may find these packs essential. Additionally, venues like sports stadiums, transport hubs, night clubs, and music venues may require the Critical Injury Pack as a precaution against violent crime or terrorism.

To ensure optimal use of these specialist supplies, it is highly recommended that staff undergo additional first aid training.
