In first aid guidelines, how should a casualty with a severe nosebleed (епистакса) be positioned?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C. Tilt head slightly forward, pinch the soft lower part of nostrils for 10 minutes, and apply cold compress to neck

  1. Step 1: Under Macedonian Road Traffic Safety Law (ZBSP), Tilting forward avoids swallowing blood or aspirating it into lungs while pressure stops bleeding. Answer: Tilt head slightly forward, pinch the soft lower part of nostrils for 10 minutes, and apply cold compress to neck. Why not the others: Tilt head far backward and swallow blood to maintain hydration does not represent the statutory standard under Macedonian vehicle safety rules.
