The surgeon's handbook on the treatment of wounded in war : a prize essay . Double-headed roller. Sagittal bandage. Knotted bandage. Fig. 90. c. The knotted bandage (fascia nodosa) (fig. 89) is a double-headedroller, whose turns are crossed at right angles upon the wound, andtightly drawn, as in tying up a parcel (Paekknoten). It is especiallysuitable for haemorrhage, where considerable pressure is required. Forthe same purpose, a tightly stretched cravat or a piece of india-rubberbandage may be used. d. The halter bandage (capistrum) (fig. 90).The first turn begins on the top of the head,crosses the cheek by passing under the chin,and returns to the vertex. From here the secondturn runs backwards round the occiput: it isthen carried from the nape of the neck to thefront round the anterior surface of the chin:lastly it returns to the nape of the neck, andascends again to the vertex. After these havebeen repeated twice or three times, the thirdturn brings it to a conclusion by forming acircle from forehead to The halter bandage. NB. This bandage, as well as the following one, is to be especially recom-mended as an excercise, for its individual turns can be used for variousdressings. Moreover they are both best applied with wet gauze bandages. Esmarch, the Surgeons Handbook. 4
