Any bleeding when the blood is exposed to oxygen turns the color of the blood to bright red and is called oxygen-rich. If the blood has used up a portion of the oxygen it is carrying, called oxygen-poor blood, it turns to a darker brick-red.
Menstrual bleeding is predominantly venous.
1. Venous bleeding (bleeding from the veins). 2. Arterial bleeding (bleeding from the arteries). 3. Capillary bleeding.

Arterial bleeding is more serious than venous or capillary bleeding because arteries carry blood with higher pressure and oxygen content, causing them to spurt or gush out more rapidly. This can lead to a faster blood loss and potential life-threatening situations if not controlled promptly. Arterial bleeding can result in more severe blood loss and tissue damage compared to venous or capillary bleeding.
Arterial bleeding is considered more serious than venous or capillary bleeding because arteries carry oxygen-rich blood at high pressure from the heart to the rest of the body. This type of bleeding can lead to rapid blood loss and can be life-threatening if not controlled quickly. Venous and capillary bleeding, on the other hand, typically involve blood flowing out at a slower rate and are easier to manage.
For simple procedures such as peripheral venous access, applying simple pressure (to stop bleeding) and a bandage may be sufficient
No, lift legs for venous return. Make sure legs are above heart. You do this for shock or bleeding.
True. Arterial bleeding is generally more serious than venous bleeding because arterial blood is under higher pressure, resulting in a faster flow of blood. This can lead to rapid blood loss and potentially life-threatening situations if not controlled quickly.
Venous blood flow is easiest to control. Arterial blood flow is hardest to control because it is under pressure from the heart.
