Whether you are using a commercial device or a stick and triangular bandage as a tourniquet, it is important to remember that:

B. the tourniquet should only be removed at the hospital because bleeding may return if the tourniquet is released. C. you should try to control the bleeding by applying pressure to a proximal arterial pressure point first.
