Arterial Bleeding Stopping Band

The details of the band used to stop arterial bleeding in the arms and legs are as follows:

How to Use

The band is wrapped tightly over the bleeding area. The band compresses the bleeding area and thus the bleeding stops. However, the band needs to be loosened every 20 minutes.

Application Time

When transporting a casualty, a note should be added to the casualty stating when the bandage was applied. It is important to update this note at regular intervals.
