31. SOP in combat and situations just like this.

A tourniquet is applied to stop bleeding when you really have no idea of the victim’s circumstances, health history, and extent of injury. I’d say it has to come off within 60 minutes, although no really serious repercussions like permanent nerve damage, necrosis manifest until 2 hours.
