The ABCs of Bleeding (based on the BleedingControl.org "Stop The Bleed" training)

When you find someone who is bleeding severely, you can help keep them alive until first responders arrive. An adult person can bleed out (exsanguinate) in as little as 5 minutes after experiencing a major injury.

Remember the ABCs of bleeding control when you arrive on the scene:

A – Alert – call 9-1-1 to get help quickly

B – Bleeding – find the bleeding injury on the injured person. You may need to cut away or remove clothing to find the wound.

C – Compress – apply pressure to stop the bleeding by:

  1. Covering the wound with a clean cloth and applying pressure by pushing directly on it with both hands or using a pressure bandage, OR
  2. Using a tourniquet, OR
  3. Packing (filling) the wound with gauze or a clean cloth and then applying pressure with both hands or with a pressure bandage.
