Cravat Bandage for Head.-This bandage is
useful to control bleeding from wounds of the scalp or
forehead. After placing a compress over the
wound, place the center of the cravat
over the compress and carry the ends
around to the opposite side; cross them,
continue to carry them around to the starting point, and
tie in a square knot.
Cravat Bandage for Eye.-After applying a compress to the affected eye, place the center of the cravat over the compress and on a slant so that the lower end is inclined downward. Bring the lower end around under the ear on the opposite side. Cross the ends in back of the head, bring them forward, and tie them over the compress. Figure 3-19 shows the proper application of a cravat bandage for the eye.
