How to Manage Bleeding from a Blood Vessel


1. Apply pressure. Application of pressure is always a good first choice.
It prevents further blood loss and may allow the vessel to clot,
thereby stopping the bleeding. Try this technique for at least 5–7 minutes.
If it is unsuccessful, the following alternatives should be tried.
2. If you have access to an electrocautery unit. If the vessel is a vein or
small (1–2 mm) artery, grab it with the tips of a metal clamp and
touch the clamp with the cautery device. Be sure that your gloves
are intact and that the clamp is applied only to the vessel.
3. If you do not have access to an electrocautery unit or if the vessel is
a larger vein or larger (3–4 mm) artery, the end of the vessel should
be tied off with a suture for secure hemostasis. There are two basic
techniques for tying off a vessel (see figures on following pages).

Regular Tie
Regular ties are adequate for most veins and small (2–3 mm) arteries.
Grasp the end of the vessel with a small clamp, and gently hold the
vessel away from the surrounding tissues. Pass a piece of 3-0 or 4-0 silk
or Vicryl suture material (the needle is not needed) around the vessel
and under the clamp. Tie the suture securely, placing at least 3 or 4 knots.

Stick Tie
A stick tie is a more secure technique to control bleeding from a blood
vessel. It is especially useful for arteries, because the thicker wall and
increased interior pressure of an artery can cause a regular tie to come
off of the vessel.
Grasp the end of the artery with a small clamp, and gently lift the
vessel. Use a 3-0 or 4-0 silk or Vicryl suture with a needle (a tapered
needle is best). Pass the needle through the center of the vessel just
under the clamp. Bring both ends of the suture toward yourself (again,
under the clamp), and tie the suture securely (just once).
Now take one of the suture ends and pass it completely around the vessel,
making sure to pass the string under the clamp. Again, tie the suture. As
you are tightening it, remove the clamp. Finish with 3–4 more knots.

  1. Irrespective of receiving daily oral or future in jectable depot therapies, these require health care visits for medication and monitoring of safety and response. If patients are treated early enough, before a lot of immune system damage has occurred, life expectancy is close to normal, as long as they remain on successful treatment. However, when patients stop therapy, virus rebounds to high levels in most patients, sometimes associated with severe illness because I have gone through this and even an increased risk of death. The aim of “cure”is ongoing but I still do believe my government made millions of ARV drugs instead of finding a cure. for ongoing therapy and monitoring. ARV alone cannot cure HIV as among the cells that are infected are very long-living CD4 memory cells and possibly other cells that act as long-term reservoirs. HIV can hide in these cells without being detected by the body’s immune system. Therefore even when ART completely blocks subsequent rounds of infection of cells, reservoirs that have been infected before therapy initiation persist and from these reservoirs HIV rebounds if therapy is stopped. “Cure” could either mean an eradication cure, which means to completely rid the body of reservoir virus or a functional HIV cure, where HIV may remain in reservoir cells but rebound to high levels is prevented after therapy interruption.Dr JAMES Herbal Medicine makes me believes there is a hope for people suffering from ACUTE MYELOFIBROSIS, ALZHEIMER's symptoms, BREAST CANCER, DIABETES, HAIR LOSS AND HAIR TREATMENT, KIDNEY DISEASES, LEUKEMIA, MYELOID LEUKEMIA, STEM CELL TREATMENT,Parkinson's disease,Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity
