FIRST AID TREATMENT OF CATASTROPHIC BLEEDING
The Safe Use Of Tourniquets & Haemostatic Dressings
Following extensive use and research in combat, there is a wealth of evidence that tourniquets are effective, save lives and have a relatively low rate of complications following application. Similarly, haemostatic dressings have also undergone significant improvements in recent years, have low complication rates and have saved many lives.
Of course, a small office workplace is unlikely to find that catastrophic bleeding is a significant risk to their employees, so they wouldn’t necessarily have to rush out and buy this new equipment. A waste recycling plant or tree surgeon on the other hand may wish to consider having these available.
The guidelines are very clear that “training is required to ensure application is safe and effective”
