A casualty has an injured arm. They can move it freely but it is bleeding. Why should you get them to keep it in a raised position?

والضحية مجروح في ذراعه. يمكن أن يحركه بحرية ولكنه ينزف. لماذا يجب عليك أن تعلمهم بإبقاءه مرتفع؟

Explanation: If a casualty is bleeding heavily, raise the limb to a higher position. This will help to reduce the blood flow. Before raising the limb you should make sure that it is not broken.
