Re: First aid kits on safari

Shakari,

You display a comprehensive kit, very generous to heal everybody. Very altruistic.

As there is a satisfying kit in the car, as the bearer is bearing something too (I don’t know what?) I don’t want to bring a cumbersome pouch.
My pouch is containing.
2 bands (crepe and gauze)
2 compresses (10-10 & 25-25)
5 butterfly strips
1 aspi-venom
pincers, not the tiny one in the swiss knife,
Iodine paste (Betadine)



One fears mostly :
Major bleeding : garrot=belt, bands, Tshirt, compresses
Serious bleeding bands, compresses
Minor bleeding compress, butterfly strips
Scratch : nothing
Thorn : good pincers
And in any case : IODINE , preferably Iodine paste to plug the wounds.
In fact it’s the pouch I bring along to nurse my Teckel hound when she is dealing wiht boars, save stapples.
The whole kit is weighting 200g.

NB QR seems very interesting
