This is my medical kit only, all others are going to be in my BOB.
First, the burn kit. the only thing i'm missing from the kit your recomending is the pain reliving gel, i'll get one. hypothermia i'll get this kit http://www.chinookmed.com/cgi-bin/it...-------------- minor surgery kit.. i currently have this http://www.amazon.com/Military-Style...ds=surgery+kit (should i be look for a better kit?). and on suture kit, i really should get one since skin staples are meant to be two person job but suturing can be done by one person. ( what needle size do you recommend?) Last edited by Kestryll; 06-08-2015 at 8:38 AM.. |

@ Rockit
Wilderness Fiest responder trained. Great class. If you get a chance to take one you should. I also participated cert drills in Oakland. @BlueCrash That pain reliever gel works wonders. 1st hand account. Get cocoa butter as well. I have a basic surgery kit. I have nylon 3/8 circle needle sutures. I need more & a practice kit |

sorry its not tylenol, its actually 600mg ibuprofen. I have some left over from my last ER visit. Since its in my first aid kit that I take hiking, I want something stronger than regular tylenol or ibuprofen for a worst case scenario of breaking or spraining something.

I keep a large duffel bag for a FAK and it doubles as a toiletry/hygiene kit. As far as first aid..I bought one of those 300pc $20 kits from Sam's Club. Then I added a bunch of stuff on my own since most of that stuff is basic band-aids,etc...mostly just filler for the kit. I'd post a pic but don't know how to upload it from my iphone.
I added: Bottle of Hyrdrogen Peroxide Bottle of Alcohol Saline (2) Eye Wash (2) Burn gel/cream CPR mask(s) EMT shears/extra small knife Basic face masks(exposure protection from blood,coughing,etc) Cheap pair of safety glasses (again exposure protection from blood,coughing,etc) Quikclot More 4x4s,tape,bandages,trauma pads,kerlix,etc. More wipes (cleaning,anti-bacterial,baby..3 types..they all serve a purpose IMHO) Pads for wife SAM Splint Snake Bite Kit Moleskin Kit Superglue Neosporin Nitrile gloves..a bunch!! Ditched the latex..nothing like finding out after the fact that the person you might be helping such as a neighbor is allergic to latex!! Ice packs Dental Kit More OTC meds (don't forget meds for kids) I buy stuff with the longest expiration date when it comes time to replace stock. For example..if Advil has a longer shelf life for a $1 or 2 more than the bottle of Motrin..I'll pay the extra for whichever bottle is going to be able to sit longer. Wal-mart always seems to have a large bargain bin with meds for .99 I pick some of those basic meds up in case if it were to be that I give some stuff out to a stranger in need or a nearby neighbor I'm not too close with, but still know. Hand warmers Sunscreen Chapstick Lighter(s) Extra ponchos and emergency blankets Sharpie/pen/pencil/small notepad Small flashlight/headlamp/extra batteries (working on someone in the dark is much easier with a headlamp vs a hand-held) Anything not in a bottle gets bagged up in 1-gallon Ziploc bags to protect against moisture. Although they aren't waterproof bags, I figure it helps a bit and I now have extra bags to use for cleanup,or disposal of other stuff. I also keep a small tarp on the bottom of the bag..again..protection of contents of bag should I have to set it somewhere wet and I have no other option. I also keep some rope,webbing,caribeeners,next to this bag along with a pair of leather utility gloves. I know I'm leaving stuff out..this is just from memory. Each vehicle has a GHB with a much smaller version of this..IFAK. And this bag goes with us in the trailer whenever we go camping to add to the similar kit already in there. Also, I think it should be pointed out..with regards to tourniquets..keeping one is important..but you should also know when/how to use it and hopefully have the training to realize it's your last resort depending on the injury since your patient is most likely going to lose that limb. People seem to forget that direct pressure/pressure point/elevating injured limb goes a long way when it comes to bleeding control. My .02 Last edited by madland; 04-04-2013 at 5:29 AM.. |

This kit rides under the back seat of my truck and take it with me when I'm on the boat. If I'm hiking, skiing, mountain biking, or doing something where carrying this isn't practical, then I keep a smaller, very basic kit in my backpack/Camelbak.
With heart attacks being as prevalent as they are, I'm surprised that nobody has aspirin listed. ACLS of old has an acronym for heart patients: MONA - Morphine, Oxygen, Nitroglycerin, Aspirin. Yeah, yeah ... ACLS has changed, but the mnemonic still works. Since nobody but licensed medics should be carrying morphine & nitro in the field and oxygen is too bulky for most, aspirin is readily available. Would I give it to a stranger as a good Samaritan? Probably not, but I would give it to family and friends. I took this pic a week ago when I was swapping out expired stuff. - Various bandages Kerlix/4x4/ABDs/Nonsticks/petroleum drsgs/steri-strips/bandaids - pocket mask - gloves - glasses - staple kit - Kelly's / Needle drivers - Trauma shears - various suturing supplies - various skin prep stuff for above - Duct tape, ACE, and various tapes - Saline for eye washing - Chap stick - Triple Abx ointment - suture removal kit (for tweezers and small scissors) - Whistle - Thermometer - Sharpie / note pad / extra ziplock baggies - Fingernail clippers - Pen light - Children's chewable Aspirin 81mg - Synthetic wool blanket (stays next to bag under the seat of my truck) - Children's dye-free liquid benedryl (in the bag) - Epi-pen (in the bag, wife has allergies to certain insect venoms) - 200mg ibuprofen tabs, 500mg acetaminophen tabs - All in a med bag purchased from Amazon. ($16) Not pictured: - O2 bottle / bag with NRBs and Hiflow cannulas (still in the truck) This is just what I could see without listing every type of dressing, etc. Last edited by diveRN; 04-04-2013 at 7:43 AM.. |

regular OTC ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil, etc) contain 200mg/tablet so you can just take 3 to get the same effect |

Yep. Low dose aspirin, 325mg, according to most studies. Chewable actually gets into the blood stream the fastest, about 4 to 6 minutes vs up to 14 minutes for regular adult aspirin. The adage in emergency medicine, "time is tissue" really comes into play in both MI and CVAs. Generally speaking, the faster you can treat the problem, the better the patient's outcome will be.
Use aspirin VERY cautiously in cerebral vascular events though because it can make hemorrhagic strokes worse. Even the best trained MDs want the benefit of a CT scan to rule out a bleed before treating stroke symptoms. An ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke often present with very similar symptoms, but they have an ENTIRELY different treatment algorithm. I also carry liquid Benedryl because it's absorbed more quickly and is easier to swallow. For mild to moderate allergic reactions, most MDs will prescribe 25mg-50mg unless they go the IV route at which point they don't even bother with Benedryl.

In no particular order:
two pairs scissors, (one of those angled shears, and one plier type, 2' blades, sharp) 16 ga. wire (50 feet or so) fabric adhesive bandages flashlight paper tape shoe lace tampons book on edible plants, their uses, and a section on poisonous plants CPR mouth shield Basic first aid/cpr guide for the uninitiated ace bandages (small, and large) super glue charcoal capsules Ibuprofen antihistamines flint striker Moleskin Antibiotic ointment 4x4" cotton bandages gauze roll To add: mechanics gloves (the non-latex disposable variety) snake bite kit sharpies alchohol More of the stuff mentioned above

Those are some good looking kits!
Really my kit is more geared to minor things that I could handle without any medical training (from a splint to minor bleeding/gashes). Nothing really life threatening. I have a mini kit that I carry daily, it contains: Super glue bandages gauze moleskin latex gloves q-tips hydrocortozone neosporin whistle over-the-counter pain relievers This is an old picture. I have since moved it to a smaller watertight bag: For my starter kit, I bought an Adventure Medical Sportsman kit: And then went to walmart and packed it FULL of lots of stuff from more bandaids to a tube of neosporin. (contents listed in left to right, top to bottom) gauze pads, surgical sponges - various sizes wrapping long q-tips tampons (for real purpose or medical) q-tips moleskin second skin sting eze more gauze pads scissors super glue artificial tears gauze anticeptic towlettes after cuts and burns latex gloves bandaids - various sizes medical tape tube triple antibiotic ointment after-bite ointments prescription pain killers (with perscription included) - saved from past motorcycle accident Ibuprofen Tylenol pepto teasers scissors medical guide - came with the kit safety pins I decided that these are great and all but after going through some additional medical training through CERT and investigating other emergency medical classes available (which I haven't yet signed up for). I decided I wanted a bigger kit. So just this week I purchased an empty Blackhawk STOMP used on ebay for about $95: It's coming empty so I plan on starting to pick up stuff a little bit at a time till I have it built out. A lot of you have great suggestions too. Librarian, I really like how you have everything labeled by pocket, I'm going to have to do that and laminate it for a packing list so I can find what I need. This bag is going to be my big 'first aid cabinet' for home use.

A couple of things you guys might want to consider adding...
A Shemagh - they make great triangular bandages for broken arms/collar bones. SAM splints - leg, arm, and finger sizes latex tubing A small roll of duct tape...good for splinting Compressioin (ace) bandages. Not only good for wrapping sprains they can also be used for splinting

samsplits if you carry the big one you can cut it to size with your shears. I would avoid duct tape on splints in an urban area. Will do in a pinch but when its coming off in an hour or so you dont need something like that.
Just an fyi amazon has a universal splint for like 6-7 bucks. I have one and its great. Basicly the same as my sam. |

School me on latex tubing. I won't be doing any injections and that's the only thing I can think it's best used for. What other purposes could it be for?

As Promised here are my 4 kits. I made all 4 from my main kit the Adventure-Medical-Comprehensive-Kit. Also the 3 non military bags you see all also came with the kit. I will only list what i have added that was not included in the Comprehensive kit as needed. Highly recommend NOLS WMI store for 12cc syringe (Most i see are huge 25-60 cc, 12 is great for backing packing small and light), Wound closure pack and some small items, sisccors, micro tweezers. Wound closure pack is great for $4! gauze closure-strips transparent semi-permeable dressing (This stuff is not cheap) Compound Benzoin Tincture http://store.nols.edu/Store/pc/First...s&ProdSort=19& http://www.amazon.com/Adventure-Medi.../dp/B0001FLSYQ Adventure-Medical-Comprehensive-Kit This is my stay at home kit, while i do have other things most home stuff came from here, i have put in extra 4X4s gauze and band-aids. Bandage Materials 10 Bandage, Adhesive, Fabric, 1" x 3" 10 Bandage, Adhesive, Fabric, Knuckle 2 Bandage, Conforming Gauze, 3" 2 Bandage, Stockinette Tubular, 1" x 4" 4 Dressing, Gauze, Sterile, 2" x 2", Pkg./2 4 Dressing, Gauze, Sterile, 4" x 4", Pkg./2 4 Dressing, Non-Adherent, Sterile, 3" x 4" 2 Eye Pad, Sterile Bleeding 3 Gloves, Nitrile (Pair), Hand Wipe (Intl) 1 Instructions, Easy Care Bleeding 1 Trauma Pad, 5" x 9" 1 Trauma Pad, 8" x 10" Blister / Burn 1 Aloe Vera Gel with Lidocaine, 1 oz 2 GlacierGel (Small Rectangular) 1 Molefoam, 3" x 5" 22 Moleskin, Pre-Cut & Shaped (11 pieces) CPR 1 CPR Face Shield, Laerdal 1 Instructions, Easy Care CPR Dental 1 Dentemp, Filling Mixture with Pain Relief Duct Tape 1 Duct Tape, 2" x 5 Yards Fracture / Sprain 1 Bandage, Elastic with Velcro, 3" 2 Bandage, Triangular 1 Instructions, Easy Care Fracture & Sprain 1 SAMĀ® Splint, 4" x 36" Instrument 1 EMT Shears, 4" 1 Pencil 3 Safety Pins 1 Splinter Picker/Tick Remover Forceps 1 Thermometer, Digital Medical Information 1 Comp.

Also used when biking. Stays in my car with my day hike bag at all times. Sorta my GHB. I have other survival stuff but only showing first aid. Basicly what you see is what you get. Stop bleeding and common bumps. This is my Over Night back packing first aid kit. It is low on meds because they are stored with my tooth brush. Same as Day kit but a few more items. Clot bandage being the main one. This is my new kit i have been putting together. It is for events i volunteer at where people are in uniform hence the ACU. I would not have it in that colour otherwise. Will become my car first aid kit when not in use. Something to handle a wider range of events. Notice Universal Splint, a few "EMT" instruments, CAT, Meds in marked vials. Lots of ways to splint and stop bleeding. The two most common things i see happening with this kit. Not pictured is a nasopharyngeal airway, scalpel and chest seal (have not bought, currently use a piece of plastic, not as fancy but works.) This bag is GREAT highly recommend, Its a rip away tri-fold that is meant to fall open when opened so you can see it all at once. Condor EMT pouch rip away. I have everything packed so that when opened nothing falls out. http://www.amazon.com/Condor-Rip-Awa.../dp/B003TPNG5E

I have several different kits/bags for different situations
one on my vest, one in my EDC, and the largest one in my car with folding stretcher, burn kit and BVM. all of them have plenty CAT/SFOTT tourniquets I was an EMT-B and had TCCC training to use all my equipments. training is far more important than the gear IMO, a well trained person could stop bleeding with duct tape and towel. for beginner, I recommend AMK's new trauma kit it has enough supply for most trauma.

A lot of great kits here, I personally choose to keep mine rather small as its my regular outdoors kit for hiking, there are other first aid supplies at my house but for those with more in depth kits are these part of your EDC? BOB? Or home exclusive? I'm interested on personal input as to where and why it is carried or stashed. Thanks
