Ways to Control Bleeding

1. Direct Pressure - The first step in controlling a

bleeding wound is to plug the hole. Blood needs to
clot in order to start the healing process and stop
the bleeding. Just like ice won't form on the rapids of
a river, blood will not coagulate when it's flowing.

2. Elevate Above the Heart- Gravity makes blood

flow down easier than it flows up. If you hold one
hand above your head and the other at your side,
the lower hand will be red while the higher one is
pale.
 3. Use Pressure Points - Pressure points are areas of
the body where blood vessels run close to the
surface. By pressing on these blood vessels, blood
flow will be slowed, allowing direct pressure to stop
bleeding

Common pressure points:

 Arm between shoulder and elbow - brachial artery
 Groin area along bikini line - femoral artery
 Behind the knee - popliteal artery

Remember to keep the wound elevated above the heart and keep pressure directly on the
wound.
