THE ABC'S TO
"STOP THE BLEED" According to the American College of Surgeons, “Uncontrolled bleeding is the number one cause of preventable death from trauma. You can help save a life by knowing how to stop bleeding if someone, including yourself, is injured.” After ensuring your own safety, respond to the situation by using the ABCs to help stop the bleed: A: Alert: call or tell someone to call 9-1-1. B: Bleeding: find the bleeding injury. Look for and identify life threatening bleeding. Examples of a life threatening bleed: • Pooling • Spurting • Soaked bandages or clothing • Loss of all or part of a limb • Bleeding victim is confused or unconscious C: Compress: apply pressure to stop the bleeding by: • Covering the wound with a clean cloth and applying pressure by pushing directly on it with both hands. OR • Using a tourniquet, (once tourniquet is applied, there is a two hour window to receive treatment in order to save the appendage.) OR • Packing (stuffing) the wound with gauze or a clean cloth and then applying pressure with both hands.
By learning to control bleeding in an injured person, you may save a life.
