  1. His blood pressure is dropping, and the heart to compensate by  pumping harder.


  2. The fast heart rate, as others were saying, is from rapid blood loss and the heart trying to circulate adequate amounts of oxygenated blood to the vital organs. Try to stop the bleeding first since too much blood loss will cause the person to go into hypovolemic shock. If it can't be stopped then seek medical attention immediately because there may be a more serious problem such as trouble clotting blood. Keep the person calm and keep their head elevated. good luck!

  3. since the pressure inside your body has dropped due to blood loss, the heart basically tries to make up for lost blood. it's not good and should be taken care of asap.

  4. They are loosing blood pressure and the heart is trying to raise it once again, it makes it worse because you bleed out faster.

  5. The body is losing blood pressure so it pumps harder to make up for the decrease.
