The first step performed in treating wounds with hemorrhage is stopping the hemorrhage to prevent additional blood loss and to stabilize the condition of the victim. Only after the hemorrhage has been controlled and the area is stabilized can the next stage be carried out, which involves disinfecting the wound and applying a dressing.
Stopping the hemorrhage is done by tightly tying the arm by applying a tourniquet above the wound. The tourniquet is an elastic cord, which is used for stopping the bleeding in the case of hemorrhages that cannot be stopped otherwise, usually in the case of limb wounds. It is not applied directly on the skin but over a piece of bandage or other soft material and a note is necessarily attached on which the name of the victim and the exact time of applying the tourniquet are written. In the absence of a tourniquet, one can use: a scarf, belt, belt strap, tie, string, elastic, etc.
Although in the past loosening the tourniquet every 15 minutes was recommended to allow blood supply to the limb, the practice is no longer recommended at present, because it can worsen the condition of the victim. Consult specialized personnel by calling 112 before performing this maneuver.
