Summary

Description
English: Types of Bleeding

There are three types of bleeding, depending on the type of vessel that is injured. The type of bleeding can usually be identified by how the blood flows. There are three types:

Arterial

Spurting: Arteries transport blood under high pressure. Bleeding from an artery is bright red blood that spurts with every heartbeat.

Venous

Steady flow: Veins carry blood under low pressure. Bleeding from a vein is a steady flow of darker blood.

Capillary

Oozing: Capillaries also carry blood under low pressure. Bleeding from capillaries oozes.
