To:Community Health Commission Item Type: Report and Recommendation From:Greg Wright Item Activity: Subject:Stop the Bleed Initiative Report Out Action CITY OF EDINA 4801 West 50th Street Edina, MN 55424 www.edinamn.gov ACTION REQUESTED: Discuss, edit, and approve Stop the Bleed report for submission to City Council. INTRODUCTION: ATTACHMENTS: Description Stop the Bleed Initiative Report - Draft Work Plan Item: Study and report feasibility of adopting the American College of Surgeons Stop the Bleed® program for the city Background: In 2012 Lenworth Jacobs, Jr., MD, the Chair of Trauma Services at Hartford hospital, reviewed autopsies of the victims of the Sandy Hook mass casualty event and came to the conclusion that some of the fatalities may have been preventable. He convened a panel of national experts to evaluate the response to emergencies of this nature. Ultimately the panel produced a report known as the Hartford Consensusref which emphasized the importance of early intervention by bystanders. In particular, the panel recommended the use of compression, preferably with anticoagulant-treated pads, and tourniquets. The panel then convened with Obama administration officials, including representatives of the armed services. When the recommendations were applied by military units in Iraq and Afghanistan, on-field mortality fell from roughly 7% to 2%ref. With those findings, the American college of surgeons, in cooperation with the Department of Defense, initiated the Stop the Bleed® program in October 2016ref Current status: Stop the Bleed encourages bystanders to become trained, equipped, and empowered to assist in a bleeding emergency before professional help arrives. The program turns ordinary citizens into trained individuals, currently numbering over 1.9 million, who can help victims of any serious hemorrhagic emergency, much in the manner that the American Heart Association has trained millions in CPR techniques. The victim of a bleeding emergency, be it from a mass shooting event, an ice skating laceration, or an automobile crash, can bleed to death within 5 minutes, so it is essential that bystanders take action immediately. As an illustrative example, a bystander placed his belt as a tourniquet above the leg amputation of a victim of the Boston Marathon bombing. That victim was not unconscious from shock but rather was awake and talking as he was wheeled to an ambulance. Edina is not immune from the sort of mass casualty event that has traumatized cities across the US, nor are citizens of the city invulnerable to catastrophic accidents. The optimal approach for Edina is for its citizens to be prepared to potentially save lives in such an event by learning how to control life-threatening hemorrhage. Future potential: The city of Edina can implement regular Stop the Bleed courses, each taught by an instructor. The 90 minute training sessions consist of lecture material followed by practical training in the use of tourniquets and compression packs. The lecture portion of the course is available on line at no chargeref. Each Stop the Bleed course includes hands-on experience with medical mannequins to simulate a bleeding victim. Courses could be held at various City of Edina facilities such as City hall, fire stations, Public Works Building. Instructors, who are trained by the program, are volunteers, so costs to the city beyond facility overhead are minimal. After local instructors had been trained, the courses could be advertised through social media, newspapers, City of Edina publications and website, and news items on radio and television. Training for instructors can be obtained by contacting Stop the Bleed at stopthebleed@facs.org. Equipment: While bystanders can save lives by applying their training from Stop the Bleed, ideally they would have rapid access to equipment especially developed to create the greatest opportunity for success. Much as AEDs are now widely available in public places to allow bystanders to defibrillate heart attack victims, kits developed by Stop the Bleed contain the materials to provide optimal emergency care to a bleeding victim. The program has begun a campaign to place kits next to AEDs in other areas of the US. In Edina, kits could be placed in heavily traveled public venues, such as supermarkets, theaters, churches, schools, and shopping malls. A typical kit provides multiple sets of: One (1) tourniquet; 2 latex-free gloves; 1 emergency bandage; 1 pair of trauma shears; 2 rolls of primed and compressed gauze dressing; 1 H*Vent chest seal; 1 permanent marker; 4 Mylar emergency blankets. The City of Edina could encourage local businesses to place Stop the Bleed kits next to the AEDs in their facilities, but the city itself would probably need to invest in kits in order to provide optimal coverage throughout Edina. The Stop the Bleed organization sells enhanced kits for use in public venues for $500-600 retail (https://www.bleedingkits.org/all-products/enhanced-stop- the-bleed-stations.html). Conclusions: 1) The Stop the Bleed Program provides citizens with knowledge that may save lives of bleeding victims. 2) Local Instructors for the Stop the Bleed program can be trained to administer the program 3) The feasibility of placing Stop the Bleed kits in strategic locations around the city depends on the willingness of local businesses and public facilities to acknowledge the need for those materials and on the ability of the City of Edina to fund placement in city facilities, particularly schools. 4) Even in the absence of widespread placement of kits, the development of a knowledgeable citizenry will improve the emergent response to life-threatening bleeding from any cause. 5) With authorization from the City Council, the work plan of the Community Health Commission for 2023 can include collaborative work with city administration to initiate the Stop the Bleed program. .
