| Abstract |
Pelvic bleeding from trauma and postpartum hemorrhage is often difficult to treat successfully by emergency providers particularly in low resource environments, when hospital presentation is delayed or there is a lack of immediate surgical, anesthesia, and transfusion capabilities. Pneumatic anti-shock garments (PASG) decrease pelvic blood flow and hemorrhage. A tightly fitted neoprene non-pneumatic anti-shock garment (NASG) has been shown to decrease blood loss and improve survival rates from postpartum hemorrhage. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 5. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 27 October 2015.
All research outputs
#6,280,294
of 22,789,076 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Emergency Medicine
#202
of 601 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#29,251
of 94,573 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Emergency Medicine
#6
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,789,076 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 72nd percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 601 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.5. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 94,573 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 68% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 62% of its contemporaries.
