There are a lot of things that can happen where the first minute or two makes the difference
Yes indeed there are, Greg.
This is why it is called First Aid, good care needs to be provided in the first instance of injury.
The longer a victim is without proper care, means at the other end of the care cycle, it takes more time and money to treat them.
A person can (if cut badly enough) bleed to death in under 3 minutes, your brain isn't getting fresh, oxygenated blood, therefore you are on a slippery slope to death.
The shock of having a thing like this happen, could also blank the victim out.
