F/X Knife-Trauma-Arm---Impaled-1

License Type: Specialized License

Depicts a simulated penetrating knife wound. It appears that a tourniquet has been effectively applied and that EMS is examining the knife’s stability in the injury which will likely require immobilization before transport.

TEACHING POINT: Note that the examination of the knife’s stability and likely subsequent immobilization occurs after a TQ has controlled the bleeding.
