What does your department carry in your ALS or BLS bag.

[emtbasic13]

Just wondering what other departments stuff into there jump kits ?

[JTpaintball70]

First in bag:

Lots of bandaging supplies, ET roll, Narcan, Romazicon, D50, Xopenex, Albuterol, Glucagon, BP cuff, finger pulse ox, CBG monitor, 1L bag of NS, assortment of syringes and needles, assortment of IV catheters, 10 drop tubing, extension set, start kit, combitube... I think that's basically it.

[JTpaintball70]

Oh yea, also an SVN, NRB, and NC. O2 is on the cot.

We use the Plano 747.

As a general rule, I bring the box and the monitor in with me on all medical calls. For traumas I just bring the collar and board. Fire brings in their O2 and we have a D cylinder and some masks on the cot, so I don't usually bring in our airway bag unless it's a respiratory call and we're on scene first.

We also have Fent, Versed, Ativan and Tridil in the truck, which the first 3 are in a lock box, and the tridil is in a cabinet since it's a glass container.

The glucometer is in a pouch on our LP12, so it's with us at all times too.

We also have our "trauma bag" which holds a bunch of IV stuff and bandagaing... It's a small backpack which I guess we can bring with us in to a car with entrapment, or some other small space which we don't need the entire red bag, just trauma stuff.

On my rig we are all BLS so are bags are pretty boring compared to all your bags

In our jump bag we carry the usual suspects.

BP Cuff (adult and pedi)

Spare steth

SAM splint

Various bandages

Various gauze pad sizes

Glucose Gel

OPAs

Pen Light

HEPA Masks

Convienice Bags

Bio Bags

Sterile Water

Saline Solution

Tape

Window Punch (still dont know why we have that in out bags)

Note Pad

In our O2 bags (just bring them on respitory or choking calls)

O2 tank

NRBs (adult and pedi)

Nasal Cannulas (adult and pedi)

BVM (adult and pedi)

OPAs

NPAs

Extra Tubing

Manual Suction

Steth

BP Cuff (adult and pedi)

Burn Kit has all our sterile stuff and gels

We have a pedi jump pack as well. That has only pedi size stuff as mentioned above for the regular jump pack.

Our cots all have O2 tanks on them.

We also have our fire standby bags which have blankets and tarps plus extra burn equipment just incase.

We also have MCI bags and starting next month we are adding electronic tagging to the MCI kits to keep track of the patient from scene to definative care. (pilot program so we have to see how well it works)

Each bag is in a seperate compartment, except the regular jump thats on the bench seat, so we keep it all organized. The fire standby bag stays in the station house until we get punched to a fire scene, then the bag, water, cooler and ice gets thrown in the back.

Now if you ask whats in our rigs just kidding its a laundry list

In my personal bag I carry in my POV

BP Cuff

Steth

OPA kit

Various Bandages

Various Gauze Pad Sizes

SAM Splint

C-Collar

Emergency Blanket

Silver Blanket

Tape

Window Punch

Seat Belt Cutter

Knife

Trauma Shears

Kelli's

Glucose Gel

Trauma Pads

Combi Dressings

Pen Light

Note Pad

CPR Mask

Gloves

Sterile Water
