Seriously, this guy is SMILING, and his wound appears to be in less than serious condition. Emergency bleeding control is mainly necessary when the person is in life-threatening danger of losing blood, and this guy certainly isn't. I know that a seriously wounded person may be hard to come across in a free-license photo, and may be offensive to those who believe Wikipedia should be censored, but an article like this deserves a photo in which the victim NEEDS emergency bleeding-control treatment...preferably a photo where someone is APPLYING this treatment and not just an idiot smiling at the camera after one of his drinking buddies accidentally hit him in the face (for those of you trying to beat my arguments with the generalization stick, this is just a humorous example. I don't really know what happened to him, but it's not life-threatening at all. Might as well have been a drunken brawl). 97.87.141.242 ( talk) 04:42, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
Maybe this should be added to the page. http://www.popsci.com/popsci/medicine/279c849101acb010vgnvcm1000004eecbccdrcrd.html http://www.beyondbulbs.com/Celox-A-Granular-Hemostat-pr-177.html?gclid=CO3vr-aL9osCFQrCSgodGQzrtA —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Craigboy ( talk • contribs) 03:31, 5 May 2007 (UTC).
This page is currently undergoing a rewrite by the Emergency Medicine and EMS Task Force, in order to have it re-evaluated at a 'B' level. Please feel free to jump in and contribute anything that you can. I have noted what appears to be a fascination with tourniquets among some of the previous editors. This will probably end up being toned down substantially, in order to provide a more global and clinical view of bleeding control. Your comments on this step are most welcome.

I think this page explains pretty clear about emergency bleeding and its treatment. But the thing is lack of proper information in the reference links as three of them are dead links. So, I did research and found a blog link related with the information provided in one of those dead links. That severe bleeding blog is First Aid Severe Bleeding . Thus, I refer to put this information instead of “ "Severe Bleeding (Univ. Michigan Medical School website)". Retrieved 2009-02-03.[dead link] “. Maybe this material would be better incorporated into the wikipedia emergency bleeding control project. Pooja.singla3 ( talk) 07:21, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
Some argue that tourniquets should never be used in the pre-hospital setting, not even for amputations
Unsourced and directly contradicts sourced information in emergency tourniquet. 72.200.151.13 ( talk) 00:52, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Maybe we could and should have some info, such as History after the all-important how-to medical sections. I am not, of course, disputing the value of this Page as it is, but Wikipedia is supposed to be an encyclopedia, not just a how-to, isn't it? If we didn't want to clutter this page too much, which I would understand, then maybe a good set of links to where such info as history, geographical etc could be found.
