In cases of sacral fractures or disruptions of the sacroiliac joint,
there is often concomitant blood loss from the fracture surface
and from the veins of the presacral plexus. The use of the Pelvic
C-Clamp in those settings can save lives.
Direct transverse compression of the sacroiliac joint controls
bleeding from the fracture surfaces and from the presacral
plexus. With the Pelvic C-Clamp applied, there is still adequate
access for a laporotomy or tamponade.
