When using the emergency bandage why do you reverse the wrapping direction and continue bandaging the wound once the elastic bandage is placed through the pressure bar?
The pressure bar increases the pressure on the wound, thus crushing the veins and arteries and stopping the wound from bleeding. The reverse action of the pressure bar and pulling the dressing over the top of the pressure bar multiplies the pressure over the wound.
List two ways of controlling bleeding?
The treatment for bleeding from a first aid point of view is through direct pressure. Apply a thick bandage and bind it into place with a crepe/roller bandage. To further minimise bleeding, elevate the limb. This causes resistance for the blood therefore decreasing bleeding. It is always important that any severe bleeding be checked out by a doctor. This is to ensure no complications are present.
