Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is the most dangerous type of bleeding?
A
Capillary
B
Arterial
C
Venous
D
None of them are dangerous
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arterial bleeding, also called pulsatile bleeding, is the most serious type of bleeding. It’s usually caused by major injuries. Since arterial blood flows from the heart, it’s oxygenated and bright red. It will also shoot out with each heartbeat in a rhythmic pattern.

Detailed explanation-2: -Arterial bleeding is the most severe and urgent type of bleeding. It can result from a penetrating injury, blunt trauma, or damage to organs or blood vessels. Because the blood comes from the arteries, it is distinctive from the other types of bleeding. For example, the blood is bright red due to it containing oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Because of the high pressure and therefore rapid loss of blood, arterial bleeding is the most dangerous and often the most difficult to control. To treat arterial bleeding, apply direct pressure.

Detailed explanation-4: -Carotid arterial injuries are the most difficult and certainly the most immediately life-threatening injuries found in penetrating neck trauma. Their propensity to bleed actively and potentially occludes the airway and makes surgical intervention very challenging.
