3D Printed israeli bandages
Pansement israelien imprimé en 3D (version francaise ici)
🇵🇸 For anyone who might not know : israeli bandages are a very efficient medical devices, that are used by first responders all around the world and save life each day. However we should remember that they were first conceived by the genocidal israeli army. Free palestine. 🇵🇸

1 - Design and usage
⚠️ WARNING : This bandage was designed based on existing israeli bandages, however it wasn't certified as a medical device and should thus be used based on your own jugment. ⚠️
This repo is a simple proposition of a 3D-printed israeli bandage (or "lever"), that is made to be clipped on any normal compression bandage (preferably hemostatic) right at the time of application.
There is a narrow clip at the bottom of the passage of the lever, which you can use to secure it after doing a single turn around the limb of the victim, so the bandage you are using can then be used as any bought israeli bandage.
2 - 3D printing
You can print this israeli bandage lever from the 3Dfiles/israeli_bandage.stl file.
Using default parameter the lever is quite strong and thus resilient to different printing parameters and materials. We would recommand to use a strong material like PETG rather than PLA, and not using too low of an infill ratio (> 20%).
3 - Parameters
If you want to changes the parameters of this design, you can edit the Freecad file 3Dfiles/israeli_bandage_v3.FCStd, which is fully parametric, with parameters present in the Spreadsheet.
