Explanation

Explanation text category D / driving test quizzes drpciv:
The tourniquet cannot be kept applied to a victim for more than two hours, after more than two hours the tissues may be affected.
The tourniquet is an elastic cord that is used to stop bleeding in the case of hemorrhages that cannot be stopped otherwise, usually in the case of limb wounds. It is applied above the wound to reduce arterial pressure in the wound area. In the absence of a tourniquet, a scarf, belt, belt strap, tie, cord, elastic, etc. can be used. It is not applied directly on the skin but over a piece of bandage or other soft material and a note must necessarily be attached on which the victim’s name and the exact time of applying the tourniquet are written. Every 15 minutes the tourniquet will be loosened for a short time to allow blood supply to the limb.
