Bandage and tourniquet

I think we have conflated two devices here in one article - the Esmarch BANDAGE and the Esmarch TOURNIQUET. We describe both, leaving the reader with no real clue as to which one is meant. I think this requires an article split. I would propose keeping information about the triangular cotton bandage at this page, and moving other information about the tourniquet to Esmarch tourniquet.

It's such a small amount of content that I think it could just be incorporated into an "inventions" section of the Friedrich von Esmarch article. 142.244.50.158 (talk) 16:15, 7 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
