Important info:
This mod does not work since 1.5 for a reason likely independent of me. The core mechanic, bleeding, despite working correctly is consistently crashing the game from area that is not debuggable by modders. I will try to contact TW developers with the problem, however I don't know if they respond to this kind of support request.
Nerd talk:
I suspect the problem is caused by the engine disliking over-time effects for performance reasons. The bleeding component is removed when the agent dies. Sometimes this component still has stuff to do and the game crashes, because there's no component anymore. Imagine going to the toilet, and when you come back, instead of your home you see an abyss.
-------
This mod adds bleeding mechanics based on damage dealt. The bleeding continues until the victim dies - it can collapse while retreating or fighting. The kill is properly assigned to the attacker.
As of 1.0.6, configuration file is as seen here: https://pastebin.com/ZYpug2mG
1. Bleeding
Thanks to impyre's suggestion, the formula is more realistic. It uses an exponentional function to calculate each bleeding tick, like on this picture below (link). It shows the default settings, basically y = BleedRate ^ x. The bleeding is also stopped when it reaches about 1 damage dealt.
Bleeding may last for a long time and - if untreated - may continue until victim dies. NPCs that are unable to bandage can optionally receive reduced bleeding, effectively making them bleed for less and for shorter time.
2. First aid
Player character starts out with a configurable amount of bandages (3 by default). You can use bandages with H key to stop bleeding. Application of bandage takes 3 seconds and is insignificantly sped up by your Medicine skill.
If your Medicine skill exceeds certain, configurable value (40 by default) it will not only stop bleeding, but also heal you. The formula is:
It means that if you're a very skilled medic, you can heal 3rd of your health with one bandage.
Also for the duration of bandaging your movement speed is reduced to almost 0. This applies to anyone who uses a bandage.

Yes, especially since I don't have much time to test each and every feature.
Does it work on newest game version?
No. Please read info on the top.
