Tactical First Aid Kits

Tactical military first aid kit: a mandatory element of a soldier's equipment

A tactical first-aid kit is a minimum set of components needed to provide immediate medical aid to a wounded person on the battlefield. Such sets are not meant for medicinal or long-term use, because they are primarily designed to eliminate the fatal consequences of injuries.

For the storage and transportation of medical supplies, bags that meet military standards are used and have the appropriate equipment: MOLLE panels, velcro for patches, organisers, etc. The presented sets are sold together with special bags, pouches and backpacks, however, if necessary, medical organisers of various types can be purchased separately.

This section presents a large number of tactical first-aid kits IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit) — these are individual military first-aid kits, equipped according to NATO standards. Depending on the specifics of the service, their content may vary, but in general, the standard set includes:

• tourniquet;

• hemostatic bandage or hemostatic agents for wound tamponade and stopping bleeding;

• compression bandage, or as it is often called "Israeli bandage" for dressing wounds;

• vent chest seal, used for open pneumothorax caused by a wound in the chest area;

• decompression needle;

• nasopharyngeal airway;

• paramedic scissors;

• triangular bandage;

• reinforced adhesive tape;

• nitrile gloves;

• thermal blanket;

• marker.

If you already have a first-aid kit and need some separate element of its configuration, we advise you to visit the corresponding section, where you can choose and buy consumable components.

1. IFAK individual first-aid kits. Ready-made first aid kits in emergency situations. First-aid kits have a common basis, but some ones are created for certain conditions or types of injuries — injuries in car accidents or in nature, burns and wounds from explosions, etc.

2. Universal first aid kits. Since IFAKs are designed for only one person and are individual, it makes sense for representatives of the Medical Service of the Armed Forces to buy a tactical military first aid kit designed to treat 2 to 4 casualties. The contents of such first-aid kits cover most possible combat injuries, and each element is presented in several units.

3. Medical military backpacks. Capacious organiser bags for transporting medical supplies with content. Designed specifically for emergency situations, the slim backpack won't get in the way or get snagged in narrow aisles or weigh down the user. Also there is available a model from a US Army contract manufacturer.

4. Sets of accessories. Sets of additional equipment of first-aid kits, which include several units of various medical devices.
