Releasing pressure to check if the bleeding has stopped breaks the clotting process — and now you’re starting from zero.

Firm. Constant. Uninterrupted. That’s what effective direct pressure looks like.

In a real bleeding emergency, you don’t have time to run back to the car or search through the kitchen cupboards. Your tourniquet needs to be accessible in one swift motion — no fumbling, no hesitation, no wasted seconds.

In a stressful emergency situation, most people's instinct is to soak up all the blood. That's not how bleeding control works.

Pressure is what stops uncontrolled bleeding. Here's what that looks like in practice:
1️⃣ Locate the bleeding source — expose, assess, prioritise
2️⃣ Apply direct pressure — firm, constant, don't let go
3️⃣ Arterial bleed on a limb — get a tourniquet on 5-10cm above the wound and not over a joint
4️⃣ Deep or junctional wound — pack it with gauze or haemostatic gauze
5️⃣ Call for help — dial 000
6️⃣ Keep your patient calm and warm

When it comes to stopping life-threatening bleeding, many of you now know to reach for a tourniquet. But what happens when the wound is somewhere a tourniquet can't go — the groin, the armpit, the neck? This is where wound packing becomes one of the most important skills you can have.

Most trauma training assumes you have room to work. Room to kneel, move around your patient, lay out your gear. Real emergencies don't always give you that.

Vehicle extrications, mining accidents, collapsed structures — the scenarios where your patient is most critically injured are often the same ones where you're wedged in, working at an angle, with one hand free if you're lucky.

Your kit needs to account for that.
