How to control Haemorrhage ( 5 Ps)
§ Position-Any bleeding from the limb can be controlled to a certain extent by elevating the limb above the level of heart.
§ Pressure-Applying firm pressure directly over the area we can control bleeding. In case of complete cut injury of a hand/ foot direct pressure over the brachial artery at the cubital fossa or the femoral artery at the mid inguinal point results in the arrest of bleeding.
§ Packing- Epistaxis due to a local cause can be controlled by sterile nasal packing.
§ Procedure- Applying sutures/ stapler clips over the bleeding vessels one can control bleeding.
§ Patience- The confidence of the doctor in handling a situation is all the more important. If he can take control of the situation everything will be under control and if he becomes panic , everything will be upside down.
