First Aid for Severe Head Wounds by علي منصور الولي is a document available to read on EtoBox.

First, apply direct pressure to the wound with a clean dressing to slow bleeding and promote clotting. Elevate the wound above the heart level if possible. Wrap a bandage tightly around the dressing to maintain pressure. If bleeding continues, apply pressure to the femoral or brachial artery near the wound. Severe bleeding can cause shock, so lay the victim flat and treat for shock by keeping them warm and calling for immediate emergency help.
