How Can Foil Be Used In First Aid?

If you are out in the bush, you could use the foil to heat you up in case you are really cold.
I have nothing else to say.

An emergency foil blanket is a common feature of a first-aid box. The International Red Cross Society, in its guidelines, states that it is mandatory to include an emergency foil blanket in every first-aid box.

The material which is commonly used to make an emergency foil blanket is known as Kelvalite. Kelvalite is defined as a material which is known for its ultra-insulating properties. It is coated on both sides with a surface which is made of metal. This metallic coating can reflect heat.

This heat-reflective metallic surface retains the maximum amount of heat which is radiated by the body of the person who has suffered an injury. This coating has one more major advantage. It protects the injured part against bad weather conditions, namely rain and wind. It is an effective cure for hypothermia.

This is to be used when you have a burn on the skin; it immediately cuts the skin from any oxygen present. It slowly begins to cool down the skin and to prevent any infections.
