RD: Medical (Building a Bug Out Bag)

BUILDING A BUG OUT BAG: Medical Compartment (Research & Development Video) SHOUTOUT: I would like to give a HUGE shoutout to "Bodin87", who was kind enough to mail me a care package of several medical supply items to help me with this compartment. Bodin87 works in the medical field and was able to provide with me with a lot of guidance in this video. This video shows the Medical Compartment for my bug out bag redesign project. I have everything stored in a Maxpedition F. I.G. H.T. medical pouch, and the items are heavily influenced by USNERDOC's Level II FAK, although scaled down. I tried to focus on having enough gear for blood loss and not include too many items that I have no idea how to use. With the Medical Compartment, the actual items are secondary to "knowledge". Since I am no medical expert, I decided to sign myself up for a few classes in my local area: a CPR certification class and a Wilderness & Remote First Aid course given by the American Red Cross. For those of you looking to build your own first aid bag, I would recommend taking the classes FIRST before building all of your gear in order to focus on the items that you actually know how to use. Please feel free to offer any constructive comments to help me refine my system. It would be greatly appreciated.

Field Wound Care - Tips for surviving a severe wounds away from medical care

If you are ever stuck out in the middle of nowhere, will you know what to do if you suffer a severe wound? This video includes tips for a medevac helicopter, stopping hemorrhage, deciding on what wounds to close, what not to close and how to close them as well as ways to prevent infection in them. Its a long video, but I believe there is quite a bit of useful information in it.

 More information about the Prestan AED UltraTrainer: The instructor and student friendly trainer feature a Pad Sensing System that senses when the AED pads are placed on the manikin's torso. Clear, calm voice prompts guide students through proper usage while a chest compression metronome (which is able to be turned off) encourages students to compress at the ECC recommended rate. And just like with most modern field AEDs, once assembled, the pads stay pre-connected to the unit. This gives your students a good feel for what it's like using an actual defibrillator. The CarryAll-S bag with shoulder strapped was deigned to fit the adult manikin, infant manikin and AED Trainer. No need to carry multiple bags when all of your products can fit in one.
