"We should also remember Bessel van der Kolk's illuminating research on Post Traumatic Stress (PTS). In his book, The Body Keeps the Score, he explains that people who actively help during an emergency are generally less likely to develop PTSD compared to those who feel helpless, paralyzed, or passive.

Active engagement in rescue or care helps process the trauma, while helpless inaction allows the stress to be stored internally."

Should you improvise a tourniquet? 🧐

It might be harder than you think...

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
-Improvising rarely works (data ranges from 30-99% failure).
-A bad TQ is probably WORSE than none at all (paradoxical increase in blood loss). If possible, use direct pressure or wound packing if appropriate.
-Potentially high risk of tissue damage depending on materials used (often too narrow).

THE NUMBERS:
-Sling+carabiner maintained 85lbs of force (compared to ~150lbs from CAT TQ).
-Cravat+carabiner maintained 45lbs of force and broke in our test at .95kN.
