There are three supplies in your first aid kit that can be used to control bleeding:
Hemostatic dressings and pressure bandages can be used to control bleeding from wounds in places where a tourniquet cannot be effectively applied, like the groin, arm pit, or the neck. Hemostatic dressings should be applied and direct, firm pressure held for three minutes.
Pressure dressings should be used to maintain hemostatic dressings in place; they help keep pressure applied to any source of active bleeding.
