Did not notice much new in terms of permissive hypotension but they are
going with the latest research and recommending tourniquets over pressure
points in severe bleeding control.

Hello and sorry for the crossposting.
 
I am wondering what's new on the new edition of the PHTLS. Is there any link
to a web site summarizing the changes? I am also interested in knowing
whether there has been some further embracing of permissive hypotension in
the new guidelines.
 
Thanks.
