Let’s see if my ancient training still makes sense. Puncture wound/bullet wound field treatment.
1. Check for both entrance and exit wounds - if both present treat exit first (larger).
2. Stop bleeding using pressure and dressing, if not arterial. Elevate wound if possible. Begin treatment for shock, keep victim calm. If wound is very grave, tell victim it will be ok - DO NOT SHOW THE WOUND TO VICTIM.
3. If wound is to abdomen, do not reinsert any exposed intestines. Wrap them outside of body to keep clean. Tag dressing for medics so they know contents.
4. Arterial wounds will have definite spray - apply tourniquet IMMEDIATELY between heart and wound. DO NOT APPLY TOURNIQUET for non-arterial wounds. Monitor closely until trained medics arrive. Tourniquet applied for over 15 minutes may result in amputation. Releasing tourniquet pressure will result in extreme pain for victim - only do so to save an extremity.
Readers digest version, circa 1980’s - 1990s. I’m sure things have changed.
If that’s from memory, then very impressive.
There’s definitely room in the fox hole for you!
No; that’s pretty much it for FIELD EXPEDIENT TREATMENT of wounds.
