I would go a step further and suggest both a headlamp for general hands-free use, and a penlight for pupillary response and other tasks. Extra points if they work with AA or AAA cells. Everything should run on the same battery tipe (oxipulsimeter, blood pressure monitor, lights...)

@@VictorGarciaR while I agree with the need for a light, how would you put a headlight in there?

Amen

@@davidleavitt835 1) Take the headlight and pass part of its headband under the handle of this first aid kit 2) Pass the body of the light above the pouch handle and through the "loop" of its own headband 3) Pull tight to secure the light 4) Use the strap+buckle that secures the pouch to its velcro base to keep the headlight from bouncing around and snagging on everything

@@VictorGarciaRI can actually visualise this working Thanks for this mate. Nicely communicated. 🙂❤ Cheers!

Thanks

You got it!

I'm not usually a big fan of attaching things to the outside of kits, but yeah that's an idea.

Exactly what I have done. Also helps if law enforcement takes a look or someone else is using the kit.

a small flashlight actually can help to see how the eyes respond to light to ascertain possible head trauma

Tweezers, headlamp and magnified glass. Good job on video.

Thanks

Good morning!

Thanks!

Breaths are not required anymore. Chest compressions are enough.

Thanks

Tampons are great for absorbing blood, but not for applying pressure, which is the primary method of stopping bleeding. If you have the time to prepare (as one does when making a first aid kit), there are better solutions such as pressure bandages (Israeli, etc.) and hemostatic gauze. The Kleenex tissues or antibacterial wet wipes would be a great addition though.

@@Inko_Inko The idea of using a tampon for a gun wound is a valid. Actually tampons have been used for gun wound dressing for years. Of course pressure is required, pressure plus a tampon in the wound saves lives. Tampons will expand and fill the cavity left from the bullet or knife. This creates provides pressure in all directions. Of course you also need to apply a pressure bandage over it, but with that and the tampon inside the wound applying pressure outwards, you have greatly improved the odds of survival for the wounded person. The tampon is also used in those situations where you cannot compress the wound. DARPA put out a request for companies to design an infield dressing for bullet wounds. The item that they would use as a base line was actually a tampon. They wanted something that would work better. The final winner was one that had small sponges in a large injector that when used the small sponges would expand and stop the bleeding. So they took a perfectly good 25 cent tampon and replaced it with a $500 copy that didn’t do as good as a job as the tampon. Lol. Pretty typical of the military.

@@maureenstrang6130 sorry but I’m not understanding your reply. I’m old so I often don’t understand when people use acronyms in their answers. Drives my kids crazy. But I learn, hence my asking you. If I offended you, I’m Canadian so I apologize for everything, please don’t take it that way. It’s just that no one ever includes women products 8n their survival kits. Women do make up half our population.

Yeah I just couldn't remember the name right then

Thanks, you too!

Watch until the end, he added one.

Thanks!

I'll see what I can do, thanks

Thanks for watching!

ok

They don't have an indefinite shelf life. Same as anti-venom.

Yes I have

I did!
