When using the pressure procedure if you are pressing on the artery and not feeling the bone what should you do?
You've either got the wrong location for the pressure point, or you're not doing it correctly. Pressure points are defined by the point where the artery passes over the bone, and can therefore be "squeezed off" to stop blood flow. If you're not feeling the bone, then you're pressing in the wrong direction, or in the wrong location. You should reposition your hand so that you feel the bone under the muscle, and apply the pressure again.

Yes, blood can be drawn from an artery, a procedure known as arterial blood sampling. The specific procedures involved include identifying the appropriate artery, cleaning the site, inserting a needle into the artery, collecting the blood sample, and applying pressure to the site to stop bleeding. This procedure is typically performed by trained healthcare professionals, such as phlebotomists or nurses, in a clinical setting.
