CPR classes, Stop the Bleed classes, and other higher order medical training emphasize one thing initially. If you feel yourself getting wound up, check yourself. Pay attention to your heart rate and your breathing. That intentional act can keep you and others from reacting badly, making it worse.

Yup. And the reason why they all hammer this home is because you do not know how you are going to react until you're thrown into it

One of the reasons you see paramedics walking up to scenes at a reasonable pace. Keeping heart rate, respiration, adrenaline/cortisol down while they work. Meanwhile people watching video afterwards screaming "why aren't they running!!"
