The correct statement is:
**A tourniquet is to be tightened until the bright red bleeding has stopped.**
Tourniquets are applied to control severe bleeding and should be tightened until bleeding is controlled, which is typically indicated by the cessation of bright red blood flow. The other statements do not correctly describe the appropriate use of a tourniquet.
