Tutorial: Controlling Bleeding
Major bleeding is a life-threatening situation, and must be immediately treated. When the body loses excessive blood, the body adapts quickly by going into shock. Factors such as age and physical condition affect how quickly this occurs. Children and the elderly can be affected more quickly because they have less blood or weakened circulatory systems. In any case, the severe blood loss must be controlled quickly to prevent shock and death.
