If your company offers a Flexible Spending Account, because of the CARES Act, items like this can be purchased using your FSA debit card. My Recon Kit was approved last month. There is a ton of stuff you can buy with your FSA like those $80 Leatherman Raptor Shears.

Have two kits that I take with me camping or cross country trips: a premade trauma kit mostly made for bleed control and bigger injuries, and one I built myself for my personal common needs. My personal one contains things like a chemical heat and cold pack, chem light, OTC meds (allergies, diarrhea, pain, heartburn, etc), sunscreen, insect repellent wipes, bug bite/stings, burn cream, tick tool, smaller bandaids, quick clot, antiseptic wipes, electrolytes, tweezers, a mirror, eye drops, a small repair kit for my glasses, moleskin, pad of paper and a pencil, thermometer, etc.. each pack is tear away and the same size but different colors. I tend (luckily) to reach for my personal one more than the trauma one.

Just discovered your channel and I love it! I'm an Eagle Scout, do a ton of shooting and camping. Camping in areas where a hospital or any help of any kind is just not available deep in the Appalachian Mountains full of cliff walls, ankle breakers, sink holes/undiscovered caves etc... we had a guy simply slip and off the cliffwall he went dislocating his hip. Long story short, makeshift stretcher and carry while one moved much quicker to reach his Jeep. Took forever as the trails are not even Jeep friendly but he made it and got him to the hospital that is like and hour and a half away by vehicle...he did 4 grand worth of damage to his Jeep getting to him, big ass rock came through the floorboard, transfer case damage, etc... but he got there and got fixed by the pros. I'm CPR certified for adults, children, and infant but as great as those classes are, they are very broad spectrum in my opinion. Not bashing at all, definitely do the classes if you have not and keep up on certification. I live in a rural county but we have a great hospital but if you are bleeding badly...they most likely won't make it to you in time if you don't have preps to help stop or slow the bleed way down so the pros can get to you. I keep an older laptop bookbag that i used in college that happens to have a lot of red on it and I have had no issues converting it to a larger FAK, it's made to protect sensitive equipment and has lots of individual mesh compartments inside. Also keep a 'blow out' kit for major bleeding in my truck. I'm still working on deleting some things that are just not needed and discovering new products that can be handy and or replace an older version. Anyway, great video, I like the tangents because you bring up things that folks may not be aware of.

I bought this kit a while ago because I went into some phase, but personally I like the color coding. I don’t know if I’d say it’s the best kit, but for your average person it’s good. The color coding is super easy for people who are unfamiliar. It also is coded for when you’re freaked out and stressed; orange… fire is orange, ok orange is for fire. Blood… it’s red, ok red is for bleeding. Air… i guess the sky is blue, ok blue is for air. Me, having no formal training… it makes it easier to learn. So it is something that I carry with me in my truck incase I come across a car accident. Being said, as I get more training, I do plan on editing/ replacing it.

The thing that is nice is its your pack and YOU know what you can do, so when those events take place, you're not thinking of what and where but instead you're just doing what you need.

I think i would use the skin glue on the side as a makeshift tincture of benzoin to help the steri strips stick and stay. I'm a huge fan of steri strips I've seen them successfully close some pretty nasty gashes in the nursing home when we have a resident fall or whatever. There were multiple times when I thought they would need sutures and steri strips close it right up but allow drainage. Usually in 5-14 days they fall off and the wound is healed

I've been watching a lot of your videos and they're great. Obviously this review is a little old at this point but I bought there MyFAK mini pro just recently and it has a lot of the same items. Funny that you mentioned elk hunting because that was really one of big reasons that I bought it but what I liked about the range of supplies is that I now have one kit that can scale all the way up from day hiking with the kids to some life-threatening care situations that I can imagine encountering in the back country. Even things like super glue while not the ideal solution to many situations, I've used many times for simple things like small cuts or splits in the end of my finger that are quite frankly just really irritating and not good spots for a bandage. So it's the breath of coverage that I think makes this type of kit a great all around kit, even if it isn't the best at a specialized task.

I know this is an older video. I was recently working with another tree guy here in Colorado and he managed to cut himself with his chainsaw while in the tree. Only a minor cut thankfully, and not life threatening. He had one of these basic MYFAK first aid kits in his vehicle. The biggest problem I had with it, was all the separate packaging that I had to open to find the items needed to initially stop the bleeding, then to clean and dress the wound. I would prefer to be able to see everything in the kit. I am really glad that this was not more serious. His kit had nothing in it for serious bleeding or trauma, it was basically just a big boo boo kit. I have made some recommendations for things he should add to the kit, including a tourniquet or two and maybe emergency trauma dressings. If this had been more serious, I did have a trauma kit in my backpack. Will be working with this guy again this week, so I will see if he has upgraded his kit. May even give him some extra things I have.

IMHO, the kit presented in this video is packed with way too much non-essential stuff that will do nothing for lethal hemorrhage. The pouch itself looks well made and compartmentalized for organizing your gear, but I'd rather just double-up on my Izzies, quick clots, NPAs, CATs, hemostats & HyFin seals because the kind of trauma I think about is rarely limited to one individual patient. I also pack a decompression needle, but that is way beyond what a civilian should be expected to do. Honestly, packing this kit with OTC meds and assorted band-aids may be great marketing for business, but you don't need a tactical pouch for that stuff IRL. Great video! Less-than-ideal product.

You pack another bag with the true emergency medical items. This kit is First Aid for the average (and often untrained) person.

@@bcase5328 I don't think many people will spend $125 to purchase a kit that contains a space blanket, pen light, whistle and thermometer, unless they're exactly the "tactic-cool" consumers this product seems to be targeting. Seriously, why is there a thermometer in this package? It would better if they spent the money for the truly essential items, and got themselves appropriate training to use them correctly (a ROI which will pay back so much more during a medical emergency). I guess some people may purchase both Standard & Pro versions, although I hope they don't get them mixed up- at least the space blanket can serve as a temporary body bag to cover up their own mistake...

Thank for this video. I can't name how many people I've earned about the rat.

24:02 man I agree completely agree with you. IV D-10 is my preferred way also. Works in seconds not minutes like oral glucose.
