A stretchable bandage-cap for the treatment of head trauma has been developed by First Responder Solutions of Carmel, California, USA. The device will be useful in tactical combat, multi-casualty and triage situations, including in first-aid, emergency-room and post-surgery settings. The company explains that the standard of treatment for a head injury is to apply gentle pressure to control bleeding, and to apply a cold pack to control intracranial swelling associated with head trauma.
