[QUOTE="Serenity Bushcraft, post: 2035518, member: 8852"] I was tought to Start the breathing, Stop the bleeding, protect the wound, treat for shock and all of my various first aid kits are set up with this in mind. I have a USMC IFAK on my BOB, and another on my Chest Rig. They are really put together with big bleeding in mind. I have added some stuff for the minor stuff like a headache and small scrapes. I keep a larger First Aid Kit in my car, it is about the size of a large fanny pack. It has everything that I would think might be needed to keep someone from bleeding to death at least untill they can get to a hospital. I also have SAM Splints, pain meds, tummy meds, ointments, bandaids, duct tape, alchol wipes, hand sanitizer and surgical gloves. I also have a stitching kit in the bag as well but I really do not know how to use it. I guess that I could figure it out but it is there. I have one way CPR masks, oral airways (2 sizes) and even an eye cleaning kit. So far I have used the kit twice on myself (wrecked 4 wheelers and an unbelivable story about a wounded owl) and 2 times on family. SO far nothing serious of course but that kit was the only first aid kit and there were usually at least 3-5 cars around each time it was used. It could be a better kit..........BUT it is the gear that you have on hand that will get used in an emergency. Just do not forget to refill the thing after you use it. CHEERS [/QUOTE]
