Ep033 Blood Vessels

Not all bleeding is the same—and the type of blood vessel involved can change everything.

In this episode, we break down the three main types of blood vessels—arteries, veins, and capillaries—and how each presents when damaged. Understanding these differences helps you assess how serious a bleed is and respond with the right first aid.

We cover:

• The role of arteries, veins, and capillaries in the body

• How to recognise arterial, venous, and capillary bleeding

• Why some bleeds are life-threatening and others are more manageable

• What each type of bleed tells you about urgency and response

When it comes to bleeding, what you see tells you what to do.
