Hello friend! So food to hear from you. The family is doing great, thanks for asking! I hope you and yours are well also.

There he is popping in for a little Med kit review!!!!! Hahah yo Sean good seeing you brother be well bud!!!!!! 😀

Glad to hear from you again my friend! I always enjoy these videos and the explanation of them from your experience as a paramedic. Sounds like on top of building this kit you should seek training to accompany it. Great video as always love learning more about emergency medical treatment.

Oh ya! I'll watch this one tonight after work. Good to see you making videos again!

Great video. This was EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. Cheers! 🍻

Thanks for the video. I currently have a few IFAK's around but I'm learning to build my own FATPACK and this video has helped me get started. Really appreciate it.

Great comments and practical guidance. Loved it.

Thanks dad!

Sean, you're alive. Always love your videos especially your medical ones. Always good info. I think all ambulances in the world get set up the same way. They are where I live. Take care and all the best.

@@GearedTowardGear1 we are awesome thank you Sean.

Great to see you again. Something like this isn't covered in any first aid training class I have taken. Where would the training be for chest wound and airway? Was a safety officer at my last job. Was trained in cpr, how to use the kit to restart or stabilize a heart rate. They never covered deep penetrating wounds other than applying tourniquet.

Hey Rick! Great to hear from you! One of the best sources I’ve found for training on items like chest wounds/seals, and airway devices are tactical medical courses offered at gun ranges. I’ve taken and taught a number of such classes.

Cool.

The pack itself in its unfolded state strongly reminds me of the facehugger from Alien

Excellent video! I’d like a set up like that for in my truck. I’ve missed your content!

Thanks friend!!

I definitely need to put something together. I go to the gun range 2-3 times a month and am usually the only person there. The range is out in the country and the closest fire department is 100% volunteer and aren’t stationed there

I’d say you’re definitely in need of a trauma kit!

When you stage your tourniquet, you should put some of the white strap over the gap. Otherwise you wont be able to grip the strip when the time comes.

I have a very similar set up. I freaky liked the example of being impaled by a root. Falling while hiking in remote places is my big concern.

Right on dude!!

Given how prevalent heart attacks are in our society, how come nobody seems to include two or three Aspirin? Also, with regards the nasal airway, 28fr is a typical size for an adult male...are there any "typical" sizes for children or adult females?

I would add an epi-pen, nice kit.

Thanks man. An Epi-Pen is a great thing to have. I keep this kit stocked strictly for trauma, but I do keep a backpack style kit in my trunk that’s a bit more comprehensive and contains an adult and pediatric Epi-Pen.

Where can I get one?

Nice kit. How much did all this cost? For one kit.

@GearedTowardGear1

Roughly $190. The bag & the CAT tourniquet account for about $90 of that.

​@@GearedTowardGear1 Dang why does it have to be so expensive? I'm just a civilian who wants to be prepared. Obviously lives are worth it, but I just don't feel like all this stuff is worth that much on a monetary level alone.

Did I hear you right.....Are you a medic in Texas, may Iask where at? How come you do not carry bandaids, triangle bandage and gauze pads for smaller wounds that do not require major wound cacre? It appears you have the room for this other stuff.
