brachial artery
- Private Wayne Baird, a soldier from the 173rd Airborne, is treated for a severed brachial artery damaged by a bullet at an outpost in Nuristan province.
- First he cut a piece about two inches long out of the brachial artery, which supplies the arm; the arm has plenty of blood supply and would not be crippled.
- That pressure also causes the cuff to press against the brachial artery, stopping the flow of blood.
