WOW! 9 years as an EMT and now a semester away from my RN. I have got to play with most of that stuff but never in one place and never in something smaller then an ambulance fresh out of the barn! THAT IS AN AMAZING KIT! The only thing I would add to it is a medi-vac helicopter and team of medics, nurses and a few doctors.

Jose Marimba... Did I see morphine in there? LOL

If you and the neighbors have to hunker down for a while it looks great.

The only thing I'd try to do with that setup is move toward as many gadgets with standardize batteries as possible and carry extras.

And one of those headbands with parabolic mirrors that docs used to use back in the day... laugh

How in the world you ever got a MD to give you that level of equipment and drugs with a Red Cross card is beyond me. Absolutely terrifying. akraven

Hells teeth, there is more kit there than in my Regiments ambulance. Its an awesome kit, very well stocked and laid out. Just a pity you cant use parts of it, saying that I carry kit for our medics to use on me just in case.

That's a new definition of shock and awe! I'm in shock and awe LOL. The words "awesome kit" doesn't begin to cover it.

Hopefully the name on the prescription bottles matches the person carrying the kit, and a doctor is the one administering the stuff...

All that morphine and so little narcan? Any concern about the legality of carrying all that stuff? Has the doc given you a letter explaining you can carry that stuff? Why did you select the 9.0 ET? You might consider adding tetracaine to the eye care kit.
If you are looking at serious trauma such as stuff you would be treating with quickclot you should have several more 1000ml bags of NS and macro drip sets. If you add those consider including a 14g or 16g with each one. 18g is the smallest you can go and still have a large bore iv.
For a conscious intubation consider etomodate or versed. Trauma
Since you have morphine in the bag you need to have it locked up...you are carrying a narcotic (controlled substance).

Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions and comments thus far.

Given the number of comments regarding some of the medications (especially the C-II's) apparently my attempt to properly preface my post has not been as clear as I had originally hoped.

Let me reiterate, the medications that I carry are prescribed for my personal use (only) in the event of a serious traumatic injury.

These meds are not for the aid of others, are not in case I get a nasty headache, or if I'm just having a bad day and want a pick-me-up. I carry copies of all the current prescriptions along with the meds in the pack, and obviously take all prudent measures in the storage and transport of them.

Thanks again to everyone for all the positive comments!

Jim

Paragon,

Just some quick question on the pack its self.

In 'panel 4' I see two bags with mesh tops (one contains quick clot and the other has your books/info/cheat sheets).

1/Do those bags come with the lit, or did you buy them else where?

2/Are the removable or fixed?

Panel #3, Zippered Pocket, Top

1/Would you say that this pocket can hold an Ambu SPUR II BVM?

And last one (for now);

How did you attach the Blackhawk® 3-Day Assault Pack Accessory Pouch, on the sides of your kit?

I am a medic in the Australian Defence Force and I’m looking at buying a new kit, the STOMP looks the go!

Thanks mate
