NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -If the damaged vein is deep or large, the blood may gush out. Venous bleeding can be caused by the following wounds: lacerations (cuts) punctures.

Detailed explanation-2: -Specifically, arterial bleeding comes out in spurts, venous bleeding flows steadily, and capillary bleeding trickles from the body. Bleeding from the arteries and veins can be severe.

Detailed explanation-3: -ARTERIAL – Injuries that cause arterial bleeding are very serious and require immediate medical attention. Blood from an arterial bleed is bright red and spurts out in rhythm with the heart pumping. Applying pressure will not stop the bleeding. It is important to get help immediately!

Detailed explanation-4: -Stop the bleeding. Cover the wound with sterile gauze or a clean cloth. Press on it firmly with the palm of your hand until bleeding stops. But don’t press on an eye injury or embedded object. Don’t press on a head wound if you suspect a skull fracture.

Detailed explanation-5: -Blood squirt (blood spurt, blood spray, blood gush, or blood jet) is the effect when an artery is ruptured. Blood pressure causes the blood to bleed out at a rapid, intermittent rate in a spray or jet, coinciding with the pulse, rather than the slower, but steady flow of venous bleeding.
