Casualties Unknown bleeding and blood guide

The store page sums up the system: “stabilize blood loss before losing consciousness”. confirmed Your blood volume is shown in litres in the health panel, with a rate of loss per minute. Official screenshots show a readout like 4.91 L with 0.21 L/m being lost. confirmed

How do you bandage in Casualties Unknown?

1. Open the health panel. Limbs that are bleeding show teardrop symbols.
2. Drag a dressing onto the affected limb.
3. In the minigame, click and hold the dressing and circle it around the limb until the teardrop disappears. confirmed

You do not need to use a whole bandage on a single wound, as the on-screen tip in the minigame says. confirmed

Making your first dressing: three foliage make one canvas, a canvas makes a ripped dressing, and two ripped dressings combine into a full dressing. confirmed Dressings also stack together in your inventory to save space. confirmed

Which wound should you treat first?

Forum advice is blunt: stop the bleeding first, because you cannot fix anything without blood. reported When several limbs are bleeding, these guidelines come from a popular guide. confirmed

What you see	What it means	What to do
Yellow blood icon	Will bleed for a long time	Treat it now
Bandaged icon over blood	Being handled	Move on to the next wound
Small white droplet	Nearly stopped	Usually leave it

Alternating between wounds with dressings stops several bleeds faster than finishing one at a time. confirmed Bigger wounds or low-tier bandages may need more wrapping before the icon stays bandaged. confirmed

For injuries all over the body, like falling into a barbed fence, medicine that thickens your blood such as procoagulant stops bleeding across all limbs at once, rather than one by one. confirmed

How do you treat internal bleeding in Casualties Unknown?

A bandage cannot reach it. You will see an internal bleed moodle, and since 6.0 it changes with severity. confirmed What players use, based on recordings and forum tips: reported

• L.R.D. serum or procoagulant, often both. See L.R.D. and Braingrow.
• Rest and low activity while it clears.
• Blood replacement if your volume has dropped far.

Low muscle health on the abdomen can cause internal bleeding by itself, per the 7.0 notes. confirmed Sources in the world include landmines, turrets and sound cannons. confirmed

What is hemothorax?

Blood in the chest. In 7.0, hemothorax went back to lowering your maximum oxygen, so you may start suffocating even with a working heart. confirmed A chest drain treats it, and in recordings players craft or loot one specifically for this. confirmed

How do you replace lost blood?

IV bags are the standard tool. They hold twice what a canteen holds, weigh less, and let you inject blood or saline through the health menu. confirmed They are made from flexiglass plastic and a scrap tube, so a drop pod is a good place to craft one. confirmed

Blood volume also affects your mood, although this was reduced in 6.0, and blood above 5 L no longer affects it at all. confirmed Injecting miscellaneous liquids slightly thins your blood, and procoagulant thickens it. confirmed

Item	Use	Status
Dressings	External bleeds	confirmed
Sterilized dressing	Bleeding plus disinfecting	confirmed
Procoagulant	Many bleeds at once	confirmed
Clotting mush	Crafted bleed treatment, buffed in 7.0	confirmed
IV bag	Inject blood or saline	confirmed
Chest drain	Hemothorax	reported

What happens when you run out of blood?

Lowered blood volume makes you weak and affects consciousness, and in 6.0 moodles were added for each level of bleeding. confirmed Severe loss, cardiac problems and passing out chain together quickly, so the heart guide is the next thing to read if you are stable.

If you are out of supplies, resting is sometimes all you can do. One tip: as long as a wound is not yellow, you can sometimes leave it alone unless you are really low on blood. confirmed

How can you reduce bleeding in Casualties Unknown?

Avoid the sources. Most early bleeding comes from falls, glass and shade crawler bites. Use ragdoll sparingly near edges. Break glass shards before walking across them. Bring at least a few dressings to every layer, and craft them from foliage on the move, since the recipe needs nothing rare.

Watch for infection afterwards: an open wound with low skin health can get infected, as covered in infection and radiation.
