Ep044 Arterial Tourniquets

  • Summary

  • When Direct Pressure is not enough. In this episode of the First Aid Show Daily Minute Podcast, we take a look at arterial tourniquets—a powerful tool for controlling life-threatening bleeding from a limb when direct pressure just isn’t enough.

    We cover: ✅ When to use a tourniquet (and when not to) ✅ The difference between commercial and improvised tourniquets ✅ How to apply one effectively—and what to do if it fails ✅ Why recording the time of application is critical

    Tourniquets are serious tools for serious bleeding—and knowing how and when to use one could save a life.
