IMPORTANT UPDATE: CAPE YORK / KIMBERLEY– An Adventurer's Guide books - update to previous editions
Cape York book - p
age 274
Kimberley book - page 270

Marine Stingers: Information Box -

If Somebody is Stung:

3. If the sting is on a limb apply a constrictive bandage.

DO NOT APPLY A CONSTRICTIVE BANDAGE

3. If the sting is on a limb apply an PRESSURE IMMOBILISATION BANDAGE.

In fact, according to the Tropical Australian Stinger Research Unit of the James Cook University in Queensland, "The use of pressure immobilisation bandages (PIB) has been shown, by research conducted by TASRU, to potentially cause more harm than good. As a result PIB has been discontinued as apart of the first aid treatment of box jellyfish stings."

The Tropical Australian Stinger Research Unit of the James Cook University in Queensland has an excellent brochure on Irukandji Syndrome, which you can download from their web site at: www.jcu.edu.au/interest/stingers/irukandji%20brochure1.pdf
