Wound Brick
The Wound Brick is a complex hemorrhage control task trainer designed to replicate the internal tissue disruption caused by high-energy penetrating trauma.
Built as a combination of the Phokus Wound Cube with an additional cube’s worth of silicone, the trainer features a complete through-and-through wound with a significantly enlarged internal cavity, reflecting both permanent cavity formation and cavitation effects produced by tumbling or fragmenting projectiles.
Despite a relatively simple external presentation, the internal structure introduces substantial dead space and challenging access angles, which demand deliberate and disciplined wound packing.
- The semi-transparent material allows learners to visualize the internal wound cavity, revealing how limited external damage can conceal extensive internal disruption. This configuration is ideal for less experienced responders, reinforcing advanced wound packing principles and helping students understand why large internal cavities require methodical, intentional packing rather than superficial treatment.
- The medium skin tone eliminates visual cues, requiring students to rely on tactile feedback, anatomical awareness, and disciplined packing technique to manage the wound effectively. With a centrally located bleeder and difficult access to the deepest portions of the cavity, this configuration increases realism and complexity, reinforcing the value of training under conditions that closely mirror real-world injury patterns.
