I bought this to make my own medical kit for my off the grid hunting camp. I own numerous first aid kits, everyone who visits is given a backpack with gear to get them through most worst case scenario because the phone service is iffy and even if we get through, help is thirty minutes away.
I'm not an end world, zombie apocalypse guy, but I like to be prepared. I own 38 acres but there are hundreds of miles of hiking trails out my back door. So if you get a slight injury, the first aid kits in everyone's backpack will do everything you need to get back on the trail.
The bandaids and tape are used most. Blisters, bug bites and scrapes are the norm. But as a first responder I've seen injuries that look like typical non life threatening injuries that ended up killing the person.
So I chose this pack so I can fit in as much gear as possible. I filled it with EMT scissors. Alcohol, iodine, sutures (I purchased pig skin and taught myself how to suture. Plus I have years of fly tying experience so the knots are quite similar. Several syringes with numbing agents to numb the skin and a tweezer kit for any tweezer situation as well as a good nail clipper kit.
I have several tourniquet's, splints for broken fingers (larger broken bones can use tree limbs as splints, no reason to carry them Into the woods), ace bandages, slings, blood coagulation powders for miner cuts, several containers of antibacterial cleansers, blood clotting agents. Several large needle-less syringes that are filed with blood clotting materials for gunshot wounds, numerous types of antibacterial and Lidocaine sprays ointments and patches for aches and pains. All four over the counter pain medications. Allergy pills and liquids for bugs and anaphylactic reaction. Scalpels, curved scissor probes, splinter removal kits as well as a fire starting kit, four mylar blankets four mylar tents and mylar sleeping bags.
Two 1,000 quart water purification drinking straws. Salt, sugar, fork and spoon. Several flashlights plus two extra sets of batteries for each. Two rolls of dental floss (great to tie gear and shelters plus great for teeth lol)
A full tang heavy knife and a small neck knife. Head lantern with two extra sets of batteries plus more.
Most importantly is toilet paper. They seem rolls where the center area that is usually void, is full of a small roll. Each regular backpack gets a full till of scotts TP. A thousand sheets goes a long way.
This pack also can attach to my large backpack.
It seems rugged and I feel although it's packed to the gills, I'd rather be over prepared than need something.
