ABSTRACT:
A fluid resistant first aid mitt for use in control of bleeding by direct pressure is described. The mitt includes two thumb sheaths, making the mitt suitable for use by either hand. The mitt has a large opening and a large internal cavity that makes it quick and easy to put on and remove. The finger section of the mitt is wide enough to accept all four fingers of the user's hand, which eliminates wasted time on inserting each finger. The mitt can also include an attached dressing, which saves time in locating necessary pressure dressings.
