| Knife crime: ignorance putting young lives at risk, says British Red Cross |
|
| (25 July 2008) |
|
| The British Red Cross commissioned a survey by Carrick James into first aid knowledge amongst 11-14 year olds last year. When asked on how to tackle a knife wound, worryingly, 41% of young people would have removed the knife from the wound, increasing blood loss, and 6% would have pressed down on the knife to stop the bleeding. Less than half would have responded correctly by leaving the object in the wound and pressing down on the surrounding skin to stem the bleeding. |
