A member asked:
What are the major side effects of blood loss? why does it kill you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Oxygen Delivery: Blood carries oxygen to your tissues which is vital for life. The two main organs which are most sensitive to decreased oxygen supply are your brain and heart. As blood loss increases, the heart and brain arent "fed" oxygen resulting in brain and cardiac death.
