How much time does a person have to get to the hospital with severe internal bleeding?
This question is very vague as there are many types of internal bleeding that can occur in many different areas of the body. Basically, if you suspect internal bleeding dial 911 and get help on the way...if this isn't possible, monitor the patient for symptoms of shock and get them to the nearest medical facility as rapidly as possible!!
