What steps do you take for someone with significant bleeding?

First Step: apply a pad or dressing in or directly over the wound and apply firm, direct and continuous pressure until the bleeding stops.

Second Step: Once bleeding is controlled secure the pad by bandaging firmly, ensuring the pad remains directly over the wound. Observe for any further bleeding.

Third Step: Continue to check the patient’s vital signs (consciousness, breathing and pulse) and look for recurrence of bleeding.

This is what I found.

Follow DRSABCD.

2 Apply gloves if available. Help the patient to lie down.

Remove or cut the patient’s clothing to expose the wound.

3 Apply firm, direct and continuous pressure on the bleeding

wound initially with your hands until the bleeding stops.

The patient or a bystander can do this.

4 When available, apply a pad or dressing in or directly over

the wound and apply firm, direct and continuous pressure

until the bleeding stops.

• If an object is embedded in or protruding from a wound,

apply pressure on either side of the wound and place

pads around the object before bandaging.

5 Once bleeding is controlled secure the pad by bandaging

firmly, ensuring the pad remains directly over the wound.

Observe for any further bleeding.

6 Continue to check the patient’s vital signs (consciousness,

breathing and pulse) and look for recurrence of bleeding.

Do not give the patient anything to eat or drink.

7 If the bleeding is not controlled and:

• the bleeding is on a limb, apply an arterial tourniquet (if

available) and tightened until the bleeding stops. Advise

the patient that this will cause pain.

• the bleeding is not on a limb, remove existing dressings

and apply a haemostatic dressing (if available) in or

directly over the wound and apply firm, direct and

continuous pressure until the bleeding stops.
