So we all had a break from the Dirty First Aid, bet you are glad?<\/p>\n

Well now lets be quick, lets be simple.<\/p>\n

Kayakers, Sup guys n’ gals, Canoeists we all have our own thoughts about breaks and dislocations \u2013 but lets get down and dirty.<\/p>\n

\"Unsponsored-Dirty<\/p>\n

It’s simple \u2013 immobilise as easy and quick as possible, lets not get caught up with which sling is best, which way to strap.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Simple rules:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Find it, fix it.<\/p>\n

If your mate has damaged her shoulder whilst on the water, don’t spend painful time stripping her from her gear, don’t worry about your first aid kit \u2013 just strap and go. Set the arm in a comfortable position. You can use the pfd as a stationary sling system. This works well for dislocations, breaks, tendon damage etc. Franco’s book<\/a> also has some great pics on the use of a skirt, bivvy bag, tape usage.<\/p>\n
