Dear Editor,Most battlefield casualties occur prior to the arrival of medical facilities.Uncontrollable hemorrhage accounts for more than 90%of those potentially survivable battlefield casualties[1].In both military and civilian conditions,non-compressible torso hemorrhage always caused rapid exsanguination and high mortality rates before definitive treatment[2].More than half of the deaths due to non-compressible torso hemorrhage occur before hospital care can be provided[2].Therefore,early and rapid pre-hospital hemorrhage control is essential to reduce mortality.
