Nonazippy tourniquet, special combat, outdoor gear, key moments, key roles
Spinning tourniquet is a tool that the injured person can operate by himself.
The force is controlled by himself through the continuous tightening of the
bandage until the blood flow stops, and the tourniquet is buckled in a fixed part.
Complete the operation process.
Instructions
1. Put the tourniquet on the injured limb
2. Place the tourniquet 2-3 inches above the wound
3. Pull in the self-adhesive tape and pull it in reverse.
4. Turn the rotarod until the bleeding stops
5. The fixed clip fixes the rotating rod and records the time
6. Mark "T" on the forehead of the wounded to remind the medical staff that the wounded has used a tourniquet
Precautions:
1. If the bleeding site is not clear, or the action is at night, or there are multiple injuries, the principle of using a tourniquet is "high and tight",
that is, use a tourniquet at the proximal end;
2. If the first tourniquet fails, quickly use the second tourniquet at the proximal end (above),
but make sure the torsion bars do not interfere with each other;
3. Do not pass the tourniquet through the knee joint or elbow (it is easy to cause the tourniquet to have poor hemostatic effect);
4. Using a tourniquet can cause some pain, but it can save lives.
5. Monitor the casualty closely to ensure that the tourniquet is tight enough and bleeding is controlled.
6. Remember to assess, assess, reassess after using any tourniquet.
7. The tourniquet needs to be loosened for 10-15 minutes every 45 minutes,
otherwise it is easy to cause nerve and muscle necrosis. When using multiple tourniquets at the same time,
do not loosen them together, they need to be separated.
