ok - i agree on not write it up, if he can get one, like that to you alive, and he know it "wrong" - he still don a h... of a job!.

this case really make me think, what to do if the bleeding, is so deep you can pack or clamp?

i think i will try a big foley ( 20-22f ) - never tryed it, i have use tournicath, on live tissue, it works.

how easy is to, tire of vessel via a thoracotomy?
