TRIANGULAR BANDAGES

Triangular Bandages are used for the bandaging of wounds, the immobilization of fractures and dislocations, and as a sling for the support of an injured part of the body. A triangular bandage is a piece of cloth put into a right-angled triangle and often provided with safety pins to secure its setup. It can be used completely unrolled as a sling, folded as an ordinary bandage, or for specific applications, for example, on the head. It can be used to shape a sling for an injured arm, or can be folded several times into a neckband of any desired width.
