Tourniquets and Haemostatic Dressings if used correctly are now allowed to be used in first aid after the recommendations of the 2021 ERC first aid changes and the 2017 Tourniquet changes. Catastrophic bleeding is life-threatening and can kill in minutes so having a fast and effective method of stopping bleeding is a must have life skill in the workplace, out and about and at home.
