Whilst most of the information presented is generally correct there are some inaccuracies. The notion of once you put on a tourniquet the limb is gone is rather out dated, and has mostly been proven inaccurate (within certain limits) by the countless amounts of tourniquet applications over seas in combat zones . Injured individuals in such a setting routinely see 6+ hours with no amputations or major disability to the limb. More often than not, the patient will have some sort of nerve damage, usually temporary, but not to the extent of limb amputation resulting from direct damage caused by the tourniquet. Another thing that MUST be mentioned is that you should NEVER place a tourniquet over a joint. It needs to be placed either above or below the joint, as it won't do much to pinch off arteries and stop the bleed. If at all possible thin materials like strings, rope, and cord should be avoided because the amount of pressure isn't spread out enough to reduce the amount of damage that's being done to the underlying tissue and nerves. A commercially manufactured tourniquet (primary a CAT or SOF-T) purchased from a reputable dealer is always preferred when possible. That being said, if it's a matter of life or death the bleeding needs to be stopped, and sometimes it's all you have... When applying a tourniquet, it needs to be mentioned that it WILL hurt the patient. Again it's a matter of life and limb, and the bleeding has to be stopped. Unfortunately one really big inaccuracy is that tampons are "good for gunshots". Feminine hygienic care products are specifically designed for one purpose, and should be left for that and that alone. They have no place on a modern-day trauma call unless it's literally the only thing that you have. Actual non-clotting agent treated rolled gauze, trauma pads, and wound dressings really aren't much more expensive than the feminine products in question. Wound packing should never happen in/around the torso, and should be limited (in this context at least) to armpits, neck, groin, and hips. Hemostatic guaze should never be used as a packing agent in the torso or abdomen. It also needs to be mentioned that once you put a tourniquet or apply a dressing, you don't take it off to see if it stops bleeding. Leave it on, keep pressure, and get the patient to definitive care. I also think you guys really need to add a disclaimer that is for entertainment purposes, and not at all a substitute for actual training. I don't think you want to take the liability of someone trying these techniques and coming back with a lawyer saying that they didn't work... Over all a decent video with good instructional points for awareness purposes for the general public. But you don't just have to take my word for it, I'm just a paramedic on a front-line 911 ambulance with 10 years of experience; go get nationally-recognized/available (and usually free) training for civilians in the U.S From the DHS's Stop The Bleed program. Many countries across the world have their own government-funded "stop the bleed" programs that are available as well.
Was about to say this and couldn't have worded it better myself. Me and my mother (both AEMTs) have participated in a local stop the bleed program since sandy hook happened. We run around New England educating workplaces, and schools with audiences varying from 5 years old to 60's-70's. The two most important factors we stress are the use of immediate pressure, teaching young kids to literally put their body weight onto a wound. And tourniquet use. We specifically do demonstrations and help people purchase CAT tourniquets due to their ease of use. I'll leave the comment section on a disturbing but true fact that we tell almost every place we go to. At least 1/2 of the deaths of sandy hook, were due to lack of bleeding control from the extremities. Cant stress how important educating prehospital care is. Although there are few fallacies in the video it's a great work, thank you for using your platform to educate :^)
As a EMT its a lot of studying and a lot of work. I'm actually a firefighter and EMT for the department. But its a lot of fun when you get to it. But keep going, we need more in the world. uwu
Love it when these guys do a PSA of sorts as a series, an awesome of example of using the platform you have to inform as many people as you can, while also not straying from the content we all know and love. Keep up the amazing work guys! You deserve every bit of success that you get!
@Copyrighted Image You say they bounce off. I'm wondering if youve been shot by a pellet gun before? How are you so sure they dont pierce the skin? lmfao
From being told you'd be considered rude for shooting them to being pissed at them for putting their knee on your bullet wound these two are the most relatable people on TH-cam XD
Tampons ARE a terrible way to pack in regards to what is out there and easiliy availible (hell you can even get cheap rolls of gauze for a dollar or two that will do better) but if its all you got...hope you got a few laying about cause they may just need repacking often. I always keep a trauma kit on my belt just in case, even if its just a quick walk to the gas station.
use of a tourniquet does not usually mean losing a limb. back in the day when the older types of tourniquets only stopped venous flow, the limb would continue to receive blood but not let any blood past the tourniquet, causing the area below the tourniquet to hemoconcentrate. however, newer versions like the CAT tourniquet stop both venous and arterial flow of blood to the extremity (when used properly) , meaning you can leave a tourniquet on for longer than 8 hours and have only minimal damage like bruising.
I'm heading into EMS school next year. I enjoyed this video, as it touched on stuff we learned in my CPR/First Aid/AED class back when I took it and got my certification. Medicine has always a fun topic to learn for me.
Honestly I feel like the "The Modern Rogue" needs to have 3 paramedics and a necromancer on staff at all times while shooting a video, you know just in case
I have just got to say, this is a great idea for a series. As a person who has never forgotten their First aid badge but is too squeamish to go into actual medical work this is all great to to know. You may actually save someone's life with these videos and that's something to be very proud of.
I've heard that's the case in a lot of places. IIRC, most (perhaps all) first-world countries have their systems set up to redirect any major emergency number to the appropriate regional number.
I see what you've done here MR. Have a video on New Year's Eve, so I see the video while celebrating, then need to rewatch the video while more coherent while not celebrating. I will definitely fall for this and rewatch when I am better mentally.
Hey guys, I really appreciate you doing this episode. I think that it is vital that we get this information out there. That said, I'd like to shed a little more light on a few things: 1) The whole "this looks like an EMT job" scenario happens everyday. We call it a BLS release or BLS triage (in that I as the paramedic am triaging it to my BLS counterparts). 2) I think it might be good to stress that tourniquets are not as dangerous as many think. Your excellent guests mention that you have "some time" before the limb is lost, however you can sometimes leave tourniquets on for prolonged periods of time with little to no damage. When I attended my formative training in tactical medicine, we were forced to endure a lengthy classroom session with a tourniquet in place. While it was very painful, I still have all of my extremities. The data collected from military medical transports throughout OEF/OIF has shows this to be true. Lastly, it is imperative that a tourniquet be properly tightened. Not only do you need to stop the bleeding, but an improperly tightened tourniquet can lead to something called compartment syndrome, which is a very bad time. 3) The most important aspect of an IMPROVISED tourniquet is WIDE. The narrower it is (like a belt) the more likely it is to damage underlying structures. I feel that if you are going to carry 2 pieces of medical kit, it should be a CPR facemask and a tourniquet. Please, especially given your line of work, consider the investment. 4) TAMPONS: I feel that your guests put out some dangerous misinformation here. Tampons are not a tool with which to achieve hemostasis. Ever. I can provide you with academic data to support this claim, if you wish. Tampons are designed to ABSORB menstrual bleeding. They are specifically designed not to expand significantly. Additional, they are frangible, meaning that they have the potential break apart. This can complicate wound care. Packing the wound, as your guests describe, is in fact the technique of choice. Tampons are not. I would consider editing this clip out, as I would not want any of your viewers to get the wrong idea. 5) CPR: Learn it. That is all.
Benjamin Lewis, THANK YOU!!! I'm not an EMT, however I've taken a lot of medical classes, including NAEMT TCCC and have seen the same sentiments from EMTs all over... drives me nuts! The thing that really annoys me about it is that they don't ever want to learn anything "new" from anyone!
3 and 4 are super important folks. Use TCCC approved Tourniquets like the CAT, knock-offs are dangerous and known to break. Tampons should never be used as bleeding control, suggesting that they could be is dangerous and irresponsible for this audience. @The Modern Rogue I would agree with this comment please consider removing the tampon comments in the video.
You guys really need more exposure this channel is way too good. Such a gold mine of information that is actually practical. You guys are like a more educational version of Mythbusters
The first patient I applied CAT to said they'd rather bleed out than keep the CAT on. Took enormous doses of fentanyl/ketamine to calm them down. I give high dose IV analgesia prior to tightening now lol
Mitchell Lubline ratts are a good secondary tq but it should never be the first thing to reach for They’re unproven and no impartial recognized medical body approves them Stick with cat or soft t wide people This isn’t shit to fuck with
Good video, the more people know this kind of stuff the safer every one is.. As a wilderness first responder (and working on remote emt) Ive always tried to teach those around me the basics.. Information seems to be mostly good (Id hope so they have higher training than me XD) though then oversimplified some things which is better than nothing, and they left out some more complicated things... like sucking chest wounds.. Obviously thats a bit far, though at least they talked about quick clot.. I always carry that and a tourniquet, shout out to Desert Mountain Medicine.. They do great training..
Isaak Walker - We didn’t do sucking chest wounds, because we wanted the simplest stuff out there and had a limited amount of time to fit information in. :)
Jenna Brown I figured, I can imagine trying to fit too much into a 14 minute video would be hard. Did a great job with what you did cover. I can't wait for the other episodes. Wonder what you all will talk about.
As someone who's been in fire & EMS for 10 years, I'm glad you got people on there that know what they're talking about... When I saw the video title, I was worried you'd had some joker on here with false information... Can confirm everything he said. Can't wait for the rest of the videos this week!
If you buy a tourniquet be wary fakes are common and cost lives. Also only CAT and SOFT-T are reliable for almost any situation. Avoid the RATS design at all costs it’s too small and weak to work well.
grilin18 I mean no disrespect, but if the RATS design isn’t effective, then why do some people who are knowledge still say that it’s okay to use? From what I’ve seen, as long as it’s applied correctly, it’s fine.
Hey guys! Love the channel. Also, The Red Cross regularly holds basic/advanced first aid classes as well as CPR and other "first respondor" certifications. You just have to contact your local post and sign up for the classes available. I highly recommend it! There is NO SUCH THING as too much training when it comes to emergency situations.
Let's say that a person completely bleeds out. Is it possible to get to the hospital and "Re-pump" blood back into the body? Considering that the blood is the right type.
Forgive me for not being able to find an article or something, but I remember hearing something on television about a man who got into a terrible accident and lost (I think) most of his blood. Not to be confused with the comic book guy that comes up in google, but he earned the nickname of the human tick. I think it was somewhere in the US. The only reason he survived was because they pumped bag after bag of blood back into him. He might have the record or something if you want to dig deeper.
Once the heart stops beating and the brain can’t get oxygen, brain cells start dying at an extremely fast rate, first you go unconscious, then you’ll go into a coma and then you’ll die ( that’s if the heart isn’t restarted almost immediately)
@@adamboy7777 they could have used some sort of plasma which will replace blood to keep it pumping but won't supply oxygen. Honestly take what I say with a pinch of salt because I'm just a 16 year old science student😂
@@nickphillips1247 I did it this time because its funny to read "bowl health". I usually do it so people dont think i changed something else. Force of habit i guess.
Great stuff! Awesome to see that there's a good chemistry between the 4 of you, and that you're able to get a lot of good material out. Lots of laughs too.
@@blanktom6049 It is. I didn't explain myself properly. In the whole of the EU, across 28 countries and different national emergency institutions, the only number you need is the 112! The US and Canada have a similar protocol with the 911 and we probably should establish a single emergency number for all of the UN member countries.
Modern Rogue Team, i bow before you! I realy love (european love (not generic USA love)) that you do this series! You got a new patron. btw everywhere in europe call 112 for ambulance/firefighters Fun fact: if you are serious injured in germany, a real Doc (+EMT) would be by your side within 15min (almost)where ever you are.
This is wrong. The prefix (xx) 911x has been allocated to landlines all over the country. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_numbers_in_Australia#Emergency_services_numbers_(000,_106,_112)) "While dialling 911 from some mobile phones may provide access to the Emergency Call Service, such access is not a formal feature of Australia’s telecommunications system and should not be relied upon in an emergency." (www.acma.gov.au/theACMA/calling-the-emergency-call-service-from-a-mobile-phone--faqs)
@M. de k. Not on a landline you shouldn't. If you call 000 on a landline, you'll be connected immediately - there's no intentional delay between typing the last 0 and the process of connecting the call beginning. This doesn't happen when you try and call 911, since you could be typing a local number that begins with 911. It's dangerous to encourage behaviour (even just in a "well it'll probably work" sense) that could result in someone dying or being seriously injured. Even if it were the case here, I'd still say you shouldn't promote that it would work as you could encourage people to not check emergency services numbers when they travel internationally. They land in a country where their home emergency number doesn't translate, and they're in hot water.
A lot of information here is correct and well done but I noticed a few things, a pulsating mass is more indicitive of a abdominal aortic aneurysm more then internal bleeding. For abdominal internal bleeding, you're going to be looking for rigidity and detention as well as signs of shock (hypotension, tachycardia, tachypnea, and cool, pale, diaphoretic skin). If you do find a pulsating mass/abdominal aortic anuyrism it is crucial to call 911 and have them transport the patient slowly and carefully as any force could cause it to rupture. Also, for wound packing it is strongly advised not to use a tampon, their made for menstrual control only, a shirt or any cloth really is much more advised. Other then that the video was great and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the week, keep up the great content! -Nationally Registered EMT
There is a dangerously false bit of information given at 12:07-12:15. If you have 5 sets of gauze (pretty much a mound) then you are not getting direct pressure (DIRECT pressure is key). Try holding 4 sheets of balled up paper towels on your arm then try holding 12 sheets of balled up paper towels. Which one has more concentrated pressure? Pressure is equal to force ÷ area. More area = less pressure. If you have a bleed that won't stop after a mound of gauze it's best to tourniquet, peel off all the gauze then apply another patch of gauze , preferably with an Israeli Pressure Bandage , and applying supplementary pressure with the knee. Never pack a wound on the torso or around the lungs. Remember, if you have a bleed that is still coming through at 4 patches of gauze the clot hasn't formed yet. So what use is it to not remove the gauze "because it is a clotting agent"?
I went to a seminar at a local police training facility, they had a group from a thing called “Stop the bleed” they went over military trauma treating techniques. Learned how to use a Tourniquet and a thing called an Israeli bandage which is almost a mix of packing gauze and applying pressure (like a tourniquet). I think they travel the country but it was helpful and I hope I never need to use it.
Thank you for doing this. I really believe everyone should have some amount of first aid training, you could literally save someone's life with these skills.
Okay this has a few problems , I guess for someone who’s completely medically illiterate it’s better than nothing, but there are far better resources on TH-cam . Skinnymedic and Prepmedic come to mind
As an emr (emergency medical responder, one step below emt) I was taught slightly differently for the tourniquet, the paramedic who taught me(and the head of stop the bleed for my state) said to put it lower but still 2 inches above so you could save as much of the limb as possible rather than if you put it higher youd loose the entire limb if you can't make it to a hospital in time
This series is great. I've been carrying a med-kit with me for the past 6 years. By med-kit, I'm talking small-scale emergency surgery in the event of another Boston Marathon kind of scenario. Better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it and it isn't an inconvenience to carry in the car or even at my job. I do carry quick clot, but I much prefer Israeli bandages.
I apreciate this video. I work in security in a semi-volatile area. This is going to be used as a minor learning resource (no disrespect intended). I have not had great communication with you guys after the steel wool comment i made, but i felt it was important to say and show my reapect to both of you and also display my appreciation for your work. Thank you. If you ever visit Seattle, please let me know. From one professional, to (likely) several others. Thank you.
This seems like the totally worst moment to upload a health thingy. but... Happy new years from europe! Thanks for an amazing year of whiskey sipping, weapon making and enjoyable videos!
a high and tight tourniquet is called a hasty tourniquet and is used when time is sensitive. high and tight is what is used when soldiers get wounded in combat and the firefight is still going on. after the fighting or whatever rush is over you would use a deliberate tourniquet which is about 2 inches above the wound.
No. If you cut off circulation via a tourniquet high and tight, you'd risk more damage and blood loss removing it to lower it and tighten it lower. 2 inches above and high and tight are both good as long as one of those techniques stops the bleed.
One of my classmates at primary school punctured an artery once. The spray of blood hit the ceiling which was pretty impressive since it was about 20ft up. It would have been helpful to know this stuff back then. Which is why I would prefer first aid to be taught in schools over irrelevancies like prayer, or hymns.
I'm uncomfortable with wounds that are "deadly" because they make me think of how it would feel to have that wound, but even so, I'm still trucking through because I should learn this stuff. So thank you for giving me a thing that I can pause to learn this with instead of fainting! (Please correct my grammar and punctuation someone!)
I have a fear of veins and stuff like that so this entire episode was hell for me but I care about my safety and I like your videos and I wanted to support you 😬
different approaches and applications but nationally recognized wilderness first aid/first responder courses are available all over the place to learn wound care and more advanced first aid
Excellent video! This is for me the best part of The Mordern Rogue, they actually want to learn and make other people learn as well. Something i'd liked to know is, what would be the experience while being under a torniquette, doesn't that mess with your brain?
This episode of the modern rogue has been sorely needed. Thanks for the information guys! Btw if there was a modern rogue branded first aid kit. I'd buy one.

Any emergency number redirects in the UK so you can call 911 and it will redirect to 999
In Germany, fire/medical is 112 and police is 110. No idea why they're separate, but it's quite common in continental Europe.
I've heard that's the case in a lot of places. IIRC, most (perhaps all) first-world countries have their systems set up to redirect any major emergency number to the appropriate regional number.

Additional, they are frangible, meaning that they have the potential break apart. This can complicate wound care. Packing the wound, as your guests describe, is in fact the technique of choice. Tampons are not. I would consider editing this clip out, as I would not want any of your viewers to get the wrong idea.
5) CPR: Learn it. That is all.
Benjamin Lewis, THANK YOU!!! I'm not an EMT, however I've taken a lot of medical classes, including NAEMT TCCC and have seen the same sentiments from EMTs all over... drives me nuts! The thing that really annoys me about it is that they don't ever want to learn anything "new" from anyone!
I've been trained by Corpsman this is what they need to see these EMTs were too fresh out of school and seem to not have real experience.
3 and 4 are super important folks. Use TCCC approved Tourniquets like the CAT, knock-offs are dangerous and known to break. Tampons should never be used as bleeding control, suggesting that they could be is dangerous and irresponsible for this audience. @The Modern Rogue I would agree with this comment please consider removing the tampon comments in the video.
You guys really need more exposure this channel is way too good. Such a gold mine of information that is actually practical. You guys are like a more educational version of Mythbusters
Thanks!
8:53 "Yup" "Yup" "Yup" "Yeah" "Yup"
I still go back to the steel wool video from time to time just to see the "I'm bleeding!" moment again. Glad you guys haven't forgotten it.
I keep a CAT tourniquet and combat gauze on my backpack. Gotta be ready to stop the bleed.
I carry the rats and enough quick stop that my med kit is needing a size upgrade for gauze. Were did you find the combat gauze though?
The first patient I applied CAT to said they'd rather bleed out than keep the CAT on. Took enormous doses of fentanyl/ketamine to calm them down. I give high dose IV analgesia prior to tightening now lol
You clearly live in true america (anywhere but california)
Mitchell Lubline Dont use the rats. you’ll die.
Mitchell Lubline ratts are a good secondary tq but it should never be the first thing to reach for
They’re unproven and no impartial recognized medical body approves them
Stick with cat or soft t wide people
This isn’t shit to fuck with
As someone with a huge fear of blood, even just the terms and scenarios, this was very hard to watch, but still worth it, keep up the great work👍
I believe watching the modern rogue is slowly filling up my D&D stat sheet
This is the only channel on TH-cam that changes topics every episode. I love it!!
Good video, the more people know this kind of stuff the safer every one is.. As a wilderness first responder (and working on remote emt) Ive always tried to teach those around me the basics.. Information seems to be mostly good (Id hope so they have higher training than me XD) though then oversimplified some things which is better than nothing, and they left out some more complicated things... like sucking chest wounds.. Obviously thats a bit far, though at least they talked about quick clot.. I always carry that and a tourniquet, shout out to Desert Mountain Medicine.. They do great training..
Isaak Walker - We didn’t do sucking chest wounds, because we wanted the simplest stuff out there and had a limited amount of time to fit information in. :)
Jenna Brown I figured, I can imagine trying to fit too much into a 14 minute video would be hard. Did a great job with what you did cover. I can't wait for the other episodes. Wonder what you all will talk about.
@@isaakwalker85 The things we deemed most important for the average person to learn about ;)
As someone who's been in fire & EMS for 10 years, I'm glad you got people on there that know what they're talking about... When I saw the video title, I was worried you'd had some joker on here with false information... Can confirm everything he said. Can't wait for the rest of the videos this week!
Wonderful! Thanks.
Yay!! I'm out here actively searching for the positive comments. Surprising amount of negative ones, so thank you!!!
If you buy a tourniquet be wary fakes are common and cost lives. Also only CAT and SOFT-T are reliable for almost any situation. Avoid the RATS design at all costs it’s too small and weak to work well.
grilin18 Good to know!
Damn, Im used to seeing RATS hate on TEMS IGs. Strong work, sir.
grilin18 I mean no disrespect, but if the RATS design isn’t effective, then why do some people who are knowledge still say that it’s okay to use? From what I’ve seen, as long as it’s applied correctly, it’s fine.
Note: I’m not saying that it’s just as effective as a CAT or equivalent, just that it’s still useful.
@@chrisd.141 get a doppler or US and a RATS and you can see for yourself.
A video about stopping bleeding and they don’t even need to reset the injury counter. Good job Brian!
Yes! Nice! I'm gonna love this episode! Edit: heck it's a series!?
There's 5 episodes yes
Hey guys! Love the channel. Also, The Red Cross regularly holds basic/advanced first aid classes as well as CPR and other "first respondor" certifications. You just have to contact your local post and sign up for the classes available. I highly recommend it! There is NO SUCH THING as too much training when it comes to emergency situations.
i gotta say this video makes me VERY uncomfortable
I feel like i'm going to bleed myself out for no reason
No you
@@puginator2711 Your mom gay
Your profile picture seems very ironic with that comment, to me.
@@kiffy2634 no you
Haven't even gotten a minute into the video and I am invested for the rest of the series. Well played.
🎉 Happy New Years Magicians, Mentalists, Magicians, Illusionists, Scam Schoolers & all-around Rogues! Be safe & have fun 🙂
This is exactly what we needed with all of the injuries on this channel.
this would have been nice to know before my friend went head first through giant Jenga and slashed his head open
Ouch
Did you stop the bleeding? For a head wound you gotta stop blood flow at the neck.
Timothy Rodowicz thats how you kill someone
Oliver O'Keafe oh really?
@@kriskringus2191 whoosh
Thank you guys for not doing a "look at what we did this year (that you've already seen)" like everyone else. Plus, this was a good video!
Let's say that a person completely bleeds out. Is it possible to get to the hospital and "Re-pump" blood back into the body? Considering that the blood is the right type.
That sounds a little science fiction-y; not something I've ever heard of, honestly.
Forgive me for not being able to find an article or something, but I remember hearing something on television about a man who got into a terrible accident and lost (I think) most of his blood.
Not to be confused with the comic book guy that comes up in google, but he earned the nickname of the human tick. I think it was somewhere in the US.
The only reason he survived was because they pumped bag after bag of blood back into him. He might have the record or something if you want to dig deeper.
Once the heart stops beating and the brain can’t get oxygen, brain cells start dying at an extremely fast rate, first you go unconscious, then you’ll go into a coma and then you’ll die ( that’s if the heart isn’t restarted almost immediately)
@@adamboy7777 they could have used some sort of plasma which will replace blood to keep it pumping but won't supply oxygen. Honestly take what I say with a pinch of salt because I'm just a 16 year old science student😂
more stuff like this pls. this is the most useful thing you've done, and is exactly the sort of information a modern rogue needs.
Could you imagine if you got cut and you could just go *”stop bleeding, cut”* and it would just stop
Absolutely love this as an emt,my self. Keep up the great work and rock on into the new year!
R.I.C.E. Rest . Ice . Compression . Elevation
Great vid guys, please make an injury playlist. That would be amazing!
LSD(lights sirens and diesel) sounds like a album name
Thanks I'm using that
Happy New Year Brian and Jason! Watching you guys grow this channel has been awesome!
It's just a flesh wound
With all the cool things you guys do on your channel i don't understand why your don't have over 1mil subscribers already!
Me: Realizes I am too queasy to be an EMT
Love the Modern Rogue, liked the video as soon as Michael Scott was referenced! Happy new years guys!
Let us know if you can poop yet. Bowl health is important
Edit: Bowel health not bowl health
Bowl health is
"Bowl health"
@@samamamacusb2049 fug, damn sausage fingers
I've always wondered this. When people edit a comment, why not make a correction/s and repost the comment instead of adding an edit section?
@@nickphillips1247 I did it this time because its funny to read "bowl health". I usually do it so people dont think i changed something else. Force of habit i guess.
Great stuff! Awesome to see that there's a good chemistry between the 4 of you, and that you're able to get a lot of good material out. Lots of laughs too.
Why does it say brown on that man's jacket when it's clearly black
Lol
Super excited for this series! Nothing I love more than learning shit I probably don't need to know, but could also save a life.
In the EU, we only use one number, 112!
911 is only one number.
@@blanktom6049 It is. I didn't explain myself properly. In the whole of the EU, across 28 countries and different national emergency institutions, the only number you need is the 112! The US and Canada have a similar protocol with the 911 and we probably should establish a single emergency number for all of the UN member countries.
Also, police is 110 and Austria uses 122, just to make it extra confusing.
@@paco4756 That's peculiar! I stand corrected, not all EU countries have the same number. :)
Hope i don’t almost die in Europe
This is pretty much an injury comp and it's hilarious going back and forth from med talk to "I think I'm bleeding"
NOTIFICATION gang yeah
Modern Rogue Team, i bow before you! I realy love (european love (not generic USA love)) that you do this series! You got a new patron.
btw everywhere in europe call 112 for ambulance/firefighters
Fun fact: if you are serious injured in germany, a real Doc (+EMT) would be by your side within 15min (almost)where ever you are.
I know in Australia that our emergency number is 000 but if you call 911 or 999 it redirects you to 000
CheeseGuru101 interesting
In the uk it’s 999 but if you type 911 or 000.
Your fucked
This is wrong. The prefix (xx) 911x has been allocated to landlines all over the country. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telephone_numbers_in_Australia#Emergency_services_numbers_(000,_106,_112))
"While dialling 911 from some mobile phones may provide access to the Emergency Call Service, such access is not a formal feature of Australia’s telecommunications system and should not be relied upon in an emergency." (www.acma.gov.au/theACMA/calling-the-emergency-call-service-from-a-mobile-phone--faqs)
@M. de k. Not on a landline you shouldn't. If you call 000 on a landline, you'll be connected immediately - there's no intentional delay between typing the last 0 and the process of connecting the call beginning. This doesn't happen when you try and call 911, since you could be typing a local number that begins with 911.
It's dangerous to encourage behaviour (even just in a "well it'll probably work" sense) that could result in someone dying or being seriously injured. Even if it were the case here, I'd still say you shouldn't promote that it would work as you could encourage people to not check emergency services numbers when they travel internationally. They land in a country where their home emergency number doesn't translate, and they're in hot water.
A lot of information here is correct and well done but I noticed a few things, a pulsating mass is more indicitive of a abdominal aortic aneurysm more then internal bleeding. For abdominal internal bleeding, you're going to be looking for rigidity and detention as well as signs of shock (hypotension, tachycardia, tachypnea, and cool, pale, diaphoretic skin). If you do find a pulsating mass/abdominal aortic anuyrism it is crucial to call 911 and have them transport the patient slowly and carefully as any force could cause it to rupture. Also, for wound packing it is strongly advised not to use a tampon, their made for menstrual control only, a shirt or any cloth really is much more advised. Other then that the video was great and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the week, keep up the great content!
-Nationally Registered EMT
Yeah, the problem with the tampon is that it’ll absorb the blood to a point, then start clotting.
There is a dangerously false bit of information given at 12:07-12:15. If you have 5 sets of gauze (pretty much a mound) then you are not getting direct pressure (DIRECT pressure is key). Try holding 4 sheets of balled up paper towels on your arm then try holding 12 sheets of balled up paper towels. Which one has more concentrated pressure? Pressure is equal to force ÷ area. More area = less pressure. If you have a bleed that won't stop after a mound of gauze it's best to tourniquet, peel off all the gauze then apply another patch of gauze , preferably with an Israeli Pressure Bandage , and applying supplementary pressure with the knee. Never pack a wound on the torso or around the lungs. Remember, if you have a bleed that is still coming through at 4 patches of gauze the clot hasn't formed yet. So what use is it to not remove the gauze "because it is a clotting agent"?
I went to a seminar at a local police training facility, they had a group from a thing called “Stop the bleed” they went over military trauma treating techniques. Learned how to use a Tourniquet and a thing called an Israeli bandage which is almost a mix of packing gauze and applying pressure (like a tourniquet). I think they travel the country but it was helpful and I hope I never need to use it.
I was so confused from the thumbnail cuz I thought it said controlled breeding
Same. I was ready to become a superhero
Thank you for doing this. I really believe everyone should have some amount of first aid training, you could literally save someone's life with these skills.
Okay this has a few problems , I guess for someone who’s completely medically illiterate it’s better than nothing, but there are far better resources on TH-cam .
Skinnymedic and Prepmedic come to mind
Love the educational, yet fun videos. Keep it up, for all you know this video could save lives!
What we learned today is Jason is a drug addict. ;)
Yes.
Yes.
YES! I love videos like this! I watched Alec Steele's video series, which is very similar, but promoting a med kit, very entertaining type of video!
I AM ALREADY IN LOVE WITH THIS SERIES
This channel is so chaotic I can’t stop watching it
I've been seeing a lot of your videos recently. Cool stuff! Thank you.
Bleeding Control is my favorite metal band!!! Great video as always!!!
Damn that title card, Brian you seeing that all put together had to give you chills...
As an emr (emergency medical responder, one step below emt) I was taught slightly differently for the tourniquet, the paramedic who taught me(and the head of stop the bleed for my state) said to put it lower but still 2 inches above so you could save as much of the limb as possible rather than if you put it higher youd loose the entire limb if you can't make it to a hospital in time
This series is great. I've been carrying a med-kit with me for the past 6 years. By med-kit, I'm talking small-scale emergency surgery in the event of another Boston Marathon kind of scenario. Better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it and it isn't an inconvenience to carry in the car or even at my job.
I do carry quick clot, but I much prefer Israeli bandages.
I apreciate this video. I work in security in a semi-volatile area. This is going to be used as a minor learning resource (no disrespect intended). I have not had great communication with you guys after the steel wool comment i made, but i felt it was important to say and show my reapect to both of you and also display my appreciation for your work. Thank you. If you ever visit Seattle, please let me know. From one professional, to (likely) several others. Thank you.
This is a lovely comment, and it's always a good idea to supplement our videos with additional information sources!
Thanks for being my fav show on TH-cam
I'm an EMT in Colorado and we do IV's and IO's. The IV "certification" is pretty much mandatory if you want to work here.
I have never felt so woozy from a video.
This seems like the totally worst moment to upload a health thingy.
but... Happy new years from europe! Thanks for an amazing year of whiskey sipping, weapon making and enjoyable videos!
This channel needs a movie where the world starts falling apart or something and all they have learned in this channel is put to the test
a high and tight tourniquet is called a hasty tourniquet and is used when time is sensitive. high and tight is what is used when soldiers get wounded in combat and the firefight is still going on. after the fighting or whatever rush is over you would use a deliberate tourniquet which is about 2 inches above the wound.
No. If you cut off circulation via a tourniquet high and tight, you'd risk more damage and blood loss removing it to lower it and tighten it lower. 2 inches above and high and tight are both good as long as one of those techniques stops the bleed.
you are correct, any method of cutting off blood flow will work. i'm just reciting what i learned during basic training.
Great to start the new year with something useful
*Pressing a bandage into the wound*
The guy getting in pressed in: "STOP, DAMNIT IM IN ENOUGH PAIN ALLREADY!"
One of my classmates at primary school punctured an artery once. The spray of blood hit the ceiling which was pretty impressive since it was about 20ft up. It would have been helpful to know this stuff back then. Which is why I would prefer first aid to be taught in schools over irrelevancies like prayer, or hymns.
I'm uncomfortable with wounds that are "deadly" because they make me think of how it would feel to have that wound, but even so, I'm still trucking through because I should learn this stuff. So thank you for giving me a thing that I can pause to learn this with instead of fainting! (Please correct my grammar and punctuation someone!)
Awesome. Can't wait for the rest of this series
Speaking as a paramedic, high flow diesel is one of the best treatments we have
Amen! I learned it as "diesel therapy"! - Jenna
Happy New Year from GMT+1!
I got so excited when I saw part 1 of 5.
I have a fear of veins and stuff like that so this entire episode was hell for me but I care about my safety and I like your videos and I wanted to support you 😬
thanks!
This is such a great idea for a series
Emergency call in Europe 112
Swiss: Fire Department 118, Police 117, Ambulance 144, Toxicological center 145, REGA 1414
or 112
Hey Brian, what's the site you go to that doesn't allow people to know what you're buying?
“I don’t care that you’re bleeding, Brian, it burned through my shirt”
different approaches and applications but nationally recognized wilderness first aid/first responder courses are available all over the place to learn wound care and more advanced first aid
Excellent video! This is for me the best part of The Mordern Rogue, they actually want to learn and make other people learn as well.
Something i'd liked to know is, what would be the experience while being under a torniquette, doesn't that mess with your brain?
This episode of the modern rogue has been sorely needed. Thanks for the information guys! Btw if there was a modern rogue branded first aid kit. I'd buy one.
