Description: Produced by Dr Jacob Sarnoff. "Scenes show how quick, yet careful, examination is made for bleeding and preserving consciousness. Principal blood vessels and pressure points at which to check hemorrhage are shown. By means of anatomical charts, living models and actual or simulated wounds. Artificial respiration is demonstrated." "The film is replete with unique teaching devices. For example, the paths of the principal arteries are drawn in grease paint on the body of a living model, and the pressure points likewise are indicated by means of circles of contrasting color. Again, in the resuscitation sequence, an ingenious articulated rib structure is included in the picture, to show just how the external pressure on the ribs simulates the normal contraction and expansion of the chest in breathing."
