Military medicine and hemorrhage control research during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have translated to public benefit from this practice. The Department of the Defense owns the ‘Stop the Bleed’ logo and phrase – trademark pending. (American College of Surgeons, 2017) https://www.bleedingcontrol.org/
The purpose of the campaign is to better prepare the public to save lives by raising awareness of basic actions to stop life-threatening bleeding following everyday emergencies and man-made and natural disasters.
This “Stop the Bleed” is a presentation supplemented by hands-on training of tourniquet application and pressure application in a life-threatening injury scenario.
