TQ-Self Application-Arm - 1

Depicts a simulated lower arm injury with bleeding. The injured person is self-applying a tourniquet. The simulated wound (laceration or incision) is an apparent knife injury. Appropriate direct threat care, assuming the environment is still considered to be a hot zone.

TEACHING POINT: Note that the TQ is being applied high up the arm and is sufficiently tight to stop the bleeding.

TQ-Self Application - Arm-2

Depicts a simulated lower arm injury with bleeding. The injured person is self-applying a tourniquet. The simulated wound (laceration or incision) is an apparent knife injury. Appropriate direct threat care, assuming the environment is still considered to be a hot zone.

TEACHING POINT: Note that the TQ is being applied high up the arm and is sufficiently tight to stop the bleeding.

F/X Knife-Trauma-Arm---Impaled-1

Depicts a simulated penetrating knife wound. It appears that a tourniquet has been effectively applied and that EMS is examining the knife’s stability in the injury which will likely require immobilization before transport.

TEACHING POINT: Note that the examination of the knife’s stability and likely subsequent immobilization occurs after a TQ has controlled the bleeding.
