Research shows that people under acute stress lose fine motor skills, experience memory impairment, develop tunnel vision and act impulsively. We aim to develop and test a new educational method for teaching life-saving bleeding control that: is comprehensible under stress, requires minimal prior knowledge, increases actual ability to act, improves memory retention, and strengthens public preparedness. The hypothesis is that intuitive, tactile and action-based teaching provides a significantly better ability to act correctly compared to theoretical instruction.
