Emergency War Surgery NATO Handbook: Part IV: Regional Wounds and Injuries: Chapter XXIII: Maxillofacial Wounds and Injuries

Shock and Hemorrhage

United States Department of Defense


Hemorrhage is temporarily controlled by digital pressure until permanent control can be achieved by clamping and ligation. Clamping must be done under full vision, not blindly, because there are numerous important anatomical structures in this area, the damage of which could be extremely serious. Ligation of the external carotid for regional control of hemorrhage is seldom necessary.
