Good to know that you defend Nazis. Being tolerant toward them is how you let them win. You're half the problem.

Screw that. I'd say it's punch a Nazi/Confederate traitor day every day. Snuff them out. Make them afraid.

Us Corpsman get bored and look for some additional "training"

Not at all. Nobody knows what a Corpsman is and having been deployed with the Army, they're gonna call you a medic or Doc. No biggie

Negative. This landslide was near Ironton, Ohio in 2015. I live near there. The blue bridge behind it goes into Ashland, Ky

There's very little evidence that moderate use causes loss of limb. Especially since a TQ is applied to an already damaged extremity.

The law protects everyone from physician to first responder. Providing they gave reasonable aid. Laws vary by state, but all 50 states cover

From exsanguination as Vietnam. Tourniquet proved to have far more benefits than downsides. Which the cons are very few. 2/2

During the Persian Gulf and Iraq war, BUMED advised against TQ use like the plague. We had similar fatality rate of preventable deaths 1/?

Military medicine and civilian medicine has different guidelines and magic numbers. Military folllows TCCC 2017(current) for providers.

Yup! Just tourniquet and go. And if the first one doesn't stop the bleeding, apply a second one.

I've sat on patients with a TQ for 4+ hours without loss of limb.

6-8h is when significant and irreversible limb damage occurs. Of course it's advised no longer than 4h in a perfect setting.

Medic/corpsman can pack the wound with combat gauze and use a compression dressing, THEN remove the tourniquet. Much caution is needed. 2/2

Typically, yes. But if you're going to be sitting on a patient for a long time, a medical professional like a doctor or a senior 1/?

Yes. A makeshift tourniquet is more effective than doing nothing. Direct pressure and packing the wound is also recommended.

A TQ can be applied for 6-8hrs safely before limb damage occurs. Leave it in place once applied. Should be placed at the highest point 2/?

The tourniquet was found to be the most effective massive hemorrhaging prevention device in extremities. And should be used as first resort.

You're protected under the Good Samaritan Law.

TQ use isn't always a life over limb decision. They can be applied for 6-8 hrs without significant limb damage. Src: I'm an FMF Corpsman
