Tourniquets for Serious Arterial Bleeding
Do the Maths here, and you will see why you need to help yourself, not wait for help to come to you. Arterial bleeding is time critical
Do the maths; You have 5 to 6 litres of blood in the body. The heart beats 70 times a minute and ejects about 70 ml of blood each time it beats.
That equals 4.9 litres of blood circulated by the heart each minute.
So your heart can eject your entire blood volume in minutes from arterial bleeding. Yes, I understand the variables, but the principle remains the same.

What will I learn about how to stop the bleeding in serious trauma?
Learn what it really means to stop the bleeding and how vital a first aid skill it is. The Australian Resuscitation Council, the body who sets the standards for first aid training in Australia, has in its latest guidelines said that the control of life-threatening bleeding takes precedence over any other issue in an emergency first aid response.
Our unique approach will show you a plan to develop the confidence to effectively control arterial haemorrhage with a range of new and excitingly effective products like the CAT tourniquet or the emergency or Israeli bandage.
