Open Arterial Bleeds are relatively rare, thankfully, but should it happen they are life threatening. Although very scary, they are relatively easy to treat when you know what to do. In this episode of How To, we are back with expedition medic Dr. Lucy Obolensky, teaching us how to safely secure an open arterial bleed and informing us of what other factors we need to take into consideration.
As always, I highly recommend attending an outdoor First Aid course to improve your knowledge and learn in a hands on, practical manner.
