choose all the correct answers

Answer 1

The correct answers are:

1. Apply steady pressure.
2. Remove blood soaked gauze and replace with clean gauze.

Both of these steps are important in controlling bleeding. Applying steady pressure helps to slow down the bleeding and promote clotting. Removing blood-soaked gauze and replacing it with clean gauze helps maintain cleanliness and prevent infection.

Covering the wound with sterile gauze may also be a correct step, but it is not specifically mentioned in the options provided. Holding the wounded body part below the level of the heart is not typically recommended as it may increase blood flow to the area and worsen bleeding.
