Abstract
Bandaging is the process of covering wound or an injured part. . Bandage is a middle French word from the old French in which bender means ’to bind’ and bande means ‘a strip’ It is an essential part of the medical and paramedical practice. However this aspect of the training of doctors and nurses is often neglected and they are often unable to apply bandages that will remain undisturbed at least until the next day. Trying bandages is also important for ambulance crew and anyone who gives first aid.
