根因分析
止血带绑在关节上无效,因为关节的骨性突起阻止了动脉的充分压迫;血液会继续绕过关节流动。正确位置是伤口上方2-3英寸的单骨段(上臂或大腿)。
English
Tourniquets over joints are ineffective because the joint's bony prominence prevents sufficient compression of arteries; blood continues to flow around the joint. The correct placement is 2-3 inches above the wound on a single-bone segment (upper arm or thigh).

-
Apply tourniquet 2-3 inches above the wound, never over a joint. For forearm wound, place on upper arm (between shoulder and elbow). For lower leg wound, place on thigh (between hip and knee). Tighten until bleeding stops. Example: use CAT Gen7, thread strap through buckle, twist windlass until bleeding ceases, secure windlass, note time.
-
If wound is on a joint (e.g., elbow laceration), use hemostatic gauze (e.g., QuikClot) packed directly into wound with direct pressure, then wrap with pressure bandage. Tourniquet cannot be used effectively on joints.
无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
98% 失败
The elbow's olecranon process prevents the tourniquet from compressing the brachial artery; blood flow continues via collateral circulation. Bleeding does not stop.
-
97% 失败
The patella and popliteal fossa create gaps that prevent arterial compression; the tourniquet slips or fails to occlude flow. Also risks nerve damage (common peroneal nerve).
-
99% 失败
Narrow materials cut into skin and cause severe tissue damage without achieving hemostasis; they are also more likely to slip off the joint contour.
