could you please explain it for me ? Q1: "the point of the vignette is that elaborate attempts to start an IV at the site and begin to infuse Ringer lactate would waste precious time that would be best spent moving the patient to a place where the urgently needed laparotomy can be done" please give me some light,thanks

guptashutosh is absolutely right but may i add: the point is if u know the source of bleeding u should get patient operated stat and not to wait till Hb is so and so or till patient is hemodynamically stable
