This control bleeding kit has everything needed to complete the associated online training course. The final objective of the kit and training course is the most important, and that is to enable both the general public as well as all medical professionals to control and stop bleeding effectively, and as a result, prevent the premature death of trauma and mass disaster victims.

The objectives of The Apprentice Doctor® control bleeding course:

• Give members of the public (without medical background/training) a good understanding of the different types of bleeding, and then enable them to practice and perfect the relevant skills to stop or significantly reduce bleeding.
• Teach medical and healthcare professional students the basic principles of bleeding, hemostasis, shock, and how to control and/or stop bleeding in an emergency, as well as in a medical environment.

Kit includes instructional videos that teach, step-by-step, the various ways to stop bleeding, including all the relevant medical theory. Control bleeding course students will gain knowledge and an understanding of:

• Vascular anatomy
• Physiology of blood, blood volume, blood pressure, and blood clotting
• Methods to control bleeding in both an emergency and controlled medical settings
• Surgical shock
• Restoring hypovolemia
• Relevant pharmacology
• Various other related subjects
• Methods to stop bleeding in an emergency setting, including direct pressure, packing and bandaging, and tourniquets
• Methods to stop bleeding in a controlled medical environment, including direct pressure, packing and bandaging, tourniquets, clamping bleeding blood vessels, tying off bleeding blood vessels, and a variety of other measures available to the medical professional

The Apprentice Doctor® control bleeding course is aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards® (NGSS): K–12 science content standards. Students can also get an optional certificate worth 30 credit hours. The certificate can be added to applications to medical schools/training institutes to get 30 alternative shadowing hours.

The Control Bleeding Simulation Practice Kit has everything you need to complete the online course practical projects, including a control bleeding simulation arm with veins that actually bleed and arteries that squirt blood. Kit can be used individually or 1 per lab group (2 to 4 students).
