TrueClot Basic Packing Trainer - Laceration (BPT LAC)

Specifications are as published by TrueClot. This is an inert training aid, not a medical device, and nothing in it is evidence-based standard — the status of whichever real gauze or hemostatic a student practices with does not transfer to the trainer. Gauze and blood simulant are recurring consumables. The 1.5 in. wound depth is the channel's own dimension and is not a statement about any real injury.

Bleeding-control and B-Con instructors running large cohorts through packing reps at a table · TCCC and TECC courses needing a low-cost, high-count station · Hospital and agency in-service training where a dry, no-mess trainer can be used in a classroom without a wash-down · School districts and academies buying class sets.

The design choice that earns its keep is the non-slip base. A packing trainer that slides teaches the student to stabilize the prop instead of committing to the wound, and the habit shows up as shallow, tentative packing. Holding position lets the student push to depth, which is the only part of the skill that matters.

Run it dry first and wet later. Dry reps let a class do volume in a normal room with no cleanup, and the simulant is what adds the visual feedback and the pressure to work fast once the technique is there. Budget gauze as a per-student consumable — the 12 ft channel capacity is exactly the point, and it is also the reason a class burns through gauze faster than instructors expect.
