5. Handkerchief and handkerchief: can be used to stop bleeding or as a cold and damp compress.
6. Magazines, rulers, thick wrapping paper, umbrellas, and canes: all can be used as splints in the event of a fracture.
Notes:
When a car accident occurs, using a seat cover to stop bleeding is not clean. To prevent infection, a first aid kit should be kept in the car as a precautionary measure.
2. Regardless of what item is used to replace a tourniquet for hemostasis, the time of hemostasis should be indicated on the substitute, and relaxation should be done every 40 minutes. Because after using this method to stop bleeding, if the tourniquet is loosened irregularly, it can cause distal necrosis and even require amputation.
