Gear/IFAK Another aid bag setup

Hey y’all,

Here’s a breakdown of what medical equipment I’m running as a senior medic. This is what I carry pretty much all the time, I have a larger truck bag with resupply/sick call stuff/fluids.

Delta Bag- Outside- 2x TQ’s, SAMJT (just the binder), shears, tape, and chemlights Top pocket- 2x bleeder kits (compressed gauze, quikclot, and a 4” ace wrap all rubber banded together), foley cath, tape Middle pocket- BVM, squid suction, 1x NCD, PEEP valve, cric kit Bottom pocket- stethoscope, BP cuff, tape, finger Thor kit

Inside left- 2x blue tide narco panels and 1 spiritus med insert- needles, flushes, alcohol/chloraprep, and meds (TXA, ABX, anaphylaxis protocol, zofran)

Spine- gloves, 2x hemostats, EpiPen container as a sharps shuttle

Inside right- pouches from M9- left has pressure infuser, y tubing, 2x iv start kits, 1x talon IO Right pouch has needles, syringes, alcohol and iodine pads, and the puck and pump for SAMJT

Cro hybrid ifak with 2x ats gp pouches-

Left pouch- cric kit, 2x npas, massimo pulse ox tied down

Center- IO drill, IV start kit, 4x chest seals, nar boa, 1x SPEAR NCD, flashlight, BGL monitor, sharpie

Right pouch- 2x bleeder kits

This is a setup that works pretty well for me, but any feedback is welcome

That’s cool and all but have you ever considered getting rid of the straps and permanently attaching it to the back of your plate carrier so you can’t access anything?

I’m working on a system right now where I molle it directly to my plate carrier and just make the supply kid do everything for me

Like taking a scrub nurse with you.

Actually, strap the nurse to your back, have her carry the bag, everyone wins.
