Wound packing method

i've noticed quite a few people have recently passed the cpne. do you mind sharing which type of wound packing method you used. i am trying to decide between the "parachute" or "modified rope". the parachute seems to be the easiest for me.

If the parachute method works for you go with that. The rope method isn't recommended from what I seem to remember reading.

Definitely the Parachute method!

i did "modified rope" and passed. i learned it from my workshop. actually mine was not even close to being a rope because it was all fluffy so i was able to cover the whole wound fluffly (haha is that even a word?).

i did not like the parachute method because i always got contaminated by touching the edges of the wound. but with the "modified rope", i was able to guide the 4x4 more smoothly into the wound.

watch different methods from youtube and try them out and pick which is easier for you. be sure it is acceptable though. you can call ec and verify.
