Chapter 20, Problem 14RQ
An accident victim sustained a puncture wound in the popliteal fossa that is
bleeding extensively. Which pressure point would the �rst responder use to stop
the flow of blood to this vessel? (a) the medial bicipital furrow, (b) the
midinguinal point in the femoral triangle, (c) the doralis pedis on the dorsum of
the foot, (d) the anatomical snuff box.
