Some important points to consider about my LEVEL-II FAK -This is not an end-all kit, rather my current thought process on a kit with adequate depth of medical capabilities for a group operating in a remote environment given certain size & weight constraints -This kit is intended for providing care for my family members & close friends . . . I am not out there trying to find people to treat -Sterile vs Clean …
@sockermidget – I use either Mastisol or Tincture of Benzoin to help with adhesion. Try to get them as individual use snap ampules for field use. A small bottle is fine for home use. Thanks for watching!
do you carry tincture of benzoin to help with steri-strip adhesion?
@USNERDOC Normally First aid is always the First solution you should think about when a Emergency or accedent happens then you can take action with all the Gucci products after.
@petervagt – No worries my friend! I’m happy to have a contributor from Denmark. I agree 100% with the potential “misuse” of QuickClot. I have managed some very serious bleeding without a tourniquet or hemostatic agent. Direct pressure, elevation, patience and a good pressure dressing does wonders.
@USNERDOC i totally agree and i didt said i wouldt use it if nesessary.
but there are a lot of people there are thinking that “Oh we buy a quickclot ” and then they use it when they cut there finger on a Picknick. and thats no ok i think it’s all about EDUCATION! cant edress that enough (sorry about the spelling erros ) from Denmark
@petervagt – Peter, there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding hemostatic agents. Quick Clot gauze has no problems. However, that said, we all need to make choices for what we carry and intend on using should a difficult situation arise. My preference is to be prepared for the worst and hope I never get there. Of course, it is important to remember that hemostatic agents are not your first line action for bleeding.
i’m not a big fan of Quick clot couse of the Cemical part and it’s burn the skin and can do damege to nerves and more
I Love SAM splints
antoher great tip on storing needles inside the syringe!
Great job.
Real nice kit! My tips for readers: I hit up my local discount store crafts department for the little zip lock bags, and bought three packs of three different sized baggies for about 5 bucks total. Good enough for organizational purposes. I was also lucky to find at a surplus store, two gray military SAM-style splints for 10 bucks total. Another place for those is Ebay. Shaves a few bucks off. I have been adding to my kit, and it adds up fast! Every dollar counts.
