WHAT DOES BLOOD LOSS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

blood loss

Bleeding

Bleeding, technically known as hemorrhaging or hæmorrhaging, is the loss of blood escaping from the circulatory system. Bleeding can occur internally, where blood leaks from blood vessels inside the body, or externally, either through a natural opening such as the mouth, nose, ear, urethra, vagina or anus, or through a break in the skin. Hypovolemia is a massive decrease in blood volume, and the complete loss of blood, causing death, is referred to as exsanguination. Typically, a healthy person can endure a loss of 10–15% of the total blood volume without serious medical difficulties, and blood donation typically takes 8–10% of the donor's blood volume.

Definition of blood loss in the English dictionary
