"Generally, the people I shoot at the range, I'm really good friends with." Guess I don't wanna be friends with this guy. Hehehe.

Recently subbed after finding your channel on my search for what to include in my trauma kit. This video is a clear indicator that I bought all the right things. Thanks skinny medic, keep up the good videos!

I looked at your website. Your videos are great and your products look like they are of high quality. I was wondering if you ever considered starting your own subscription service. I watch countless depressing unboxing videos for Battlebox. There are other boxes too, but I think they are mostly junk. I would love to have a medical supplies subscription box from you. Primarily because it will always be useful. It's medical supplies, and you can never have enough. They are consumables. Plus, I know you won't send me Chinese dollar store products, and I think it would be a great way to build a solid foundation of useful medical supplies over time. It would be a nice alternative to spending a couple hundred bucks in one shot. It would also help educate folks on the uses, and allow them to mix and match products into their own systems. Just a thought. I love your videos, and I love that you are building your business by providing education and quality products. Keep up the great work.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE PART ABOUT SUTURES!!!! THANK. YOU. SO. MUCH. Someone needs to say it.

every Squad needs a medic and a supplier that is a must

I love the bloopers don’t stop putting those in. Knew subscriber here 🤓

Great info as always!

Trust me sheers are important. Take it from a guy who stabbed himself while cutting off a flak jacket. Important.

Outtakes at end were funny.

Gauze to provide a surface to help get clotting started faster. Not to suck blood out of the body. Pressure to Help the body to seal up the vascular system and stop external blood loss. Tourniquet when blood is spurting and you may have multiple bleed points. High and Tight is better than low and too late. Better to Go High and tight fast then loosen in 3-5 minutes once all bleeding is found and under control than waste time on one visible bleed and not find another worse one. Hope this helps folks focus on the overall situation when you are the first responder with gear been there done that with Paramedics on site and no gear due to being off duty. My gear their skills Equaled a save.

I hunt, and I practice with my pistol, and my AR-15. So I want to be able to do first aid at the range , and for that I need a proper kit. And a subscription to your channel

This video gets a like simply because of the funny gesture when skinny medic picks his teeth and spits a bit a debris out at around the 09:38 mark. Love these videos

Thank You, Be safe and well

A lot of people who are building kits are doing it on a Monthly basis. The first person to come out with a Monthly Subscription Box will do very well.

late to the discussion, with my kit I all ways carry a decompression needle. i'm not a current EMT[ was EMT for like 10 years]. However. a lot of accident ive come across, there has been a nurse,medic or doctor show up. they can use it if you have it. also. if your camping/hiking and someone falls, etc and breaks a rib, you are there ONLY Hope....on the down side. we have to take it out when we fly. most kits are allowed on flights. even your shears ;=] Remember. Help who you can. Mind blower. there also a term. Spontainious nemothorac [spellcheck]

instead of sutres i have a staple gun i picked up on a veterinary website for about 15 bux. its sterile and loaded with 35 staples. also came with a removal tool which i leave home. the staple gun is in the trauma bag that i keep in my truck. anyways, great vids. keep em comin

Awesome points! Gave me some insight into the type of EDC kit I may start carrying! Also, nice bloopers at the end lol.

I'm glad that I carry all but a couple of things in my Trama Kit . I would suggest a pen light and a headlamp. If you can't see what you are doing, then all the medical precautions will be in vain

dude this is the first time watching your videos. great info. also entertaining.

This was really helpful for checking what I carry in my kit and why. Thanks. I loved the bloopers too - been there, done that. more than once.:)

They are recently starting to move away from the loose powder hemostatic agent as it gets washes out of the wound and its more difficult to keep in place.

Those kits would make good Christmas presents.

Finaly found a real job start in a week when the roof is ready. The season over. Lol. Then collage nexy year. N i can finaly get my kit. Think it was like 700$. Might get my kit then stockpile later. Might just get it. Ahh what a year. Good videos. Grate job

Great blooper reel! 😝

Ive got all that minus actual chest seals, emergency blankets, celox powder, fancy combat gauze, casualty cards, and glow sticks for triage but i have occlusive dressings in place of chest seals and regular gauze instead. Ive also got berman oral airways and guedel oral airways to use along with them nose tubes. I guess Im doin pretty good :)

Good video. Out takes at the end are great.

Hey SkinnyMedic! I feel really interested in your videos. They seem clear, concise, and at a level that a non-emergency professional like myself can understand. I work in finance for a large financial firm and have little to no experience in medical emergencies. I would like to become certified (perhaps through the American Red Cross) to be able to assist my fellow man in the event of an emergency and not just certification in CPR, but in severe bleeding, broken limbs, etc. Where would you recommend I start? Thanks!

Don’t forget NPAs are contraindicated for head trauma. Knowing when to not use/ do something is just as important as know when to

Great video content. Have you done a video on vented vs non-vented chest seals, pros and cons of each, and when one is better than the other?

jajaja the bloopers are the best too thanks for so much

Please also include how you can screw things up. I wouldn't hesitate to use this stuff on me, but if I am being honest...this kind of stuff maoes me extremely uneasy and that needs to change, some how

How come you don't carry hemostat clamps in your trauma kit?? Surely gauze and tourniqets don't stop every type of bleed??

I always learn a lot from your videos. Thanks. Which chest seal do you think is the so called best?

great vid thx, keep those bloopers coming lmao

What z technical name of pressure bandage?

Good video. Best

Thank you for the video.

I'm studying to be a future paramedic, I just have to say as a boy scout and camp counselor I must agree with your list. Many of the scouts I teach and adults I work with haven't the slightest clue what to carry. Perhaps someday I'll get I through their thick heads. Anyways I feel that you would love my kit. It's light, simple, and very good considering I have very small budget.

Nice Kits and explanation :D

Love your channel and vids- excellent and informative! - I'm an EMR so I am not trained in nor do I carry a de-compression needle. However, I was wondering if a CPR mask is appropriate for a trauma kit?- Thanks!

Looking forward to the video on the OLEAS dressing. 😜

I love all you're videos

Great video Skinny! Thank you! Now, where'd you get that shirt??

Where is that review on the olaes bandage?

Some great info.

I am a deer hunter, just now learning about basic "Stop the Bleed" and trauma medical care and setting up my very first IFAK. Someone told me I need to get an "Israeli Bandage" for my IFAK. However due to total cost, I ordered the "Premium Personal STOP THE BLEED Kit - Enhanced". It comes with a "4 in. Responder Flat Dressing". Is that a good enough pressure dressing for my IFAK or do I need to purchase an "Israeli Bandage"?

I'm a paramedic and don't even carry a decompression needle. I have no idea why a ordinary person would ever think of doing that.

ABD pad plus ACE bandage equals compression bandage IMHO?

Good video D.

Great video!

Good video

I've heard the term "Blow Out Kit" by a couple of Operators here on KZfaq which of these would qualify if any and what would be the difference?

Do you live in Tennessee? I like the patch on on the wall.

Carry the gloves. They primarily are for disease prevention; but dirty hands put dirt in injuries.

Good stuff

What would be the reason to buy a non-vented chest seal? Is there some benefit to not having the vent?

Dont you need lub with that NPA which also takes place in your kit....might as well add 2 OPAs. They secure the airway better than NPAs and no need for lub....just another medics 2 cents.

How about SAM splints? Do they have any place in a trauma kit? Space permitting, I always try to incorporate one along with a cohesive wrap and triangular bandage.

Great video, great advice. I'm putting together some trauma kits for my church. BTW: there's no need and little purpose to adding the outtakes. Just sayin'. Keep up the good work.

I have no training on how to use a decompression needle, would caring one in a trauma kit so I could give it to someone on site who has training be worth it?

How much is combat guaze in america? Coz in australia its like $100

Great video. My question is this. I want to build a kit for both my wife and my car. What should I put in it? Do you have a video explaining this? Thank you in advance for your time.

Is it common practice to have to use an NPA & what type of lubrication does it need? Does it usually come with trauma kits or with the NPA itself?

Can you do a vid on sutures?

Skinny Love you vids !! i have an question...i wear drespants everyday because of my style lol and work lol...I carry a knife, flashlight and multitiool. no guns,i live in europe:(. But i would like to ccarry a trauma kit but will it fit in my pocket? are the some alternatives to this traumakit?

do you sell all those patches? and where do you get your ketamine versed for trauma kits?

Good friends = no need for ppe .... sure thing

lose a tooth?

o7

Toyboat...toyboat! Deep breath...now try.

Wtf did you just pick out of your teeth? lol
