Very impressed. Meds and bag are much better quality than the pictures!
I did a lot of research, and even spent an hour going though this product with my sister who is a medical nurse.<br /><br />Not only does this check all the boxes and come with a great bag, but the quality of the medical materials is very good! I was originally hesitant, but after sorting the packages, and even breaking the seal on a few duplicate items to assess quality I've been very impressed. Many items are name brand, the rest are their "Lightning products" brand which seems to be very comparable. NONE of the items seem to be low quality or something I would not want to use in an emergency.<br /><br />Bag is water resistant and is made of a plastic lined material, comfortable padding/adjustment when worn, Molle and sealing "military" zippers is a huge plus as well. (pic)<br /><br />Although I feel most any 'normal' circumstance is fully covered and then some, I went the extra step and wanted to include treatment for more grizzly wounds such as working with chainsaws, machinery, and firearms. I added:<br /><br />- MOST IMPORTANTLY a headlamp. 50% of earth's rotation is night, every medkit needs a hand-free light!<br />- Permanent Marker<br />- *Additional individual sterile gloves<br />- *Second Fishing Forceps<br />- Medline 35 Wide Skin Stapler<br />- SAM Bleeding Control Kit (Better for heavy bleeds and better *tourniquet)<br />- *SAM Chitosan Hemostatic Dressing (Better bandage for large wound clotting)<br />- *SAM Chest Seals (lung puncture "sticker" to seal/stabilize against collapsing)<br />- *Additional Israeli bandages for wrapping<br />- Petroleum bandages for continued care on healing wounds<br />- *Antiseptic Silvasorb Silver Hydrogel for continued care<br />- *Additional Israeli bandages<br />- Saline Wash<br /><br />* Items in kit but purchased separately for additional quantity or better quality<br /><br />Also to note. Everything will fit in the bag EXCEPT the Pulmonary Resuscitator, CPR Mask, Stethoscope, and Blood pressure cuff will NOT! You'll want a separate (similar sized) bag for those items as even when unpackaged they are too bulky and either don't fit at all, or would require displacing large amounts of the other items.
