Bleeding first aid
The core of bleeding control is direct pressure. Most wounds clot after 5 minutes of firm pressure; spurting or unstoppable bleeding needs immediate transport.
⚠️ 🚨 Emergencia
Wear gloves or use a clean plastic bag first — pet blood can transmit disease.
🚨 Pasos de primeros auxilios
- 1Press clean gauze or a towel firmly on the wound for 5 minutes without peeking
- 2If blood soaks through, add new gauze on top — don't remove the first layer
- 3For limb bleeding, add a pressure bandage above the wound, releasing for 1 minute every 10
- 4Impaled object: don't pull it out — stabilize it and transport
- 5Once bleeding stops, clean with saline and cover with a dressing
⛔ Nunca hagas esto
- ✕Don't pour alcohol or hydrogen peroxide into open wounds (painful, tissue-damaging)
- ✕Don't use a tourniquet without professional guidance (tissue death risk)
- ✕Don't place cotton wool directly on wounds (fibers stick)
🏥 Ve al veterinario de inmediato si:
- ⚠Bleeding continues past 5-10 minutes of pressure
- ⚠Spurting or welling blood
- ⚠Wounds into muscle/bone, penetrating bite wounds
