Tourniquet hemostasis is a simple and effective hemostasis method used in the first aid of massive bleeding in extremities. It achieves the purpose of hemostasis by compressing blood vessels to block the blood flow. However, if used improperly or for too long, the tourniquet can cause ischemia and necrosis of the distal limbs and cause disability. For this reason, the tourniquet can only be applied when the bleeding is severe and cannot be stopped by other methods.
