Uncontrolled bleeding is the number one preventable cause of death in traumatic injuries and yet it’s still one of the most misunderstood aspects of emergency response. In this episode of FlareSyn Frontline, we break down why hemorrhage control comes before everything else, how modern tourniquets work, and what actually happens in the first critical minutes after a severe injury.

Through real-world scenarios from vehicle accidents to workplace injuries and outdoor emergencies we explain how everyday people can make a lifesaving difference long before professional help arrives. Mid-episode, we walk through what separates a reliable device from a dangerous imitation, and how professionals assess durability, usability, and effectiveness when selecting the best tourniquet for real-world carry and deployment.

Whether you’re building your first trauma kit or reassessing what you carry every day, this episode sets the foundation for understanding bleeding control and why preparation isn’t paranoia, it’s responsibility.
