DOI: 10.1097/ta.0000000000001530
Abstract: BACKGROUND Rational development of technology for rapid control of noncompressible torso hemorrhage (NCTH) requires detailed understanding of what is bleeding. Our objectives were to describe the anatomic location of truncal bleeding in patients presenting with… read more here.
