After being involved in an accident, the pedestrian broke his arm. There is a wound on his forearm (about 5 cm), from which dark- colored blood is flowing continuously. What should be done to stop the bleeding?

Explanation

The English prompt diverges from the source editions: they describe an arm injured in a fall rather than a confirmed fracture, and the accepted source response means elevating it and applying a pressure dressing. Separately, current first-aid guidance uses direct pressure and avoids unnecessary movement when a fracture is suspected.
