[NSRCA-discussion] FIRST AID KIT

[Scott Anderson]

The "ACE"  bandage is the elastic type that they used for sprains, The issue is swelling, As the area swells the blood flow is restricted <bad>

Hope this helps..

Scott

  Scott,

   

  What is the ACE Bandage?  I've been carrying the CA type liquid bandaid for minor cuts as a minimum with other things that are included in what the AAA automotive club recommends.

  Please do not use ace bandages.. There is a issue with swelling...

   

  Most all your store kits can not handle lacerations or cuts caused by the RC plane..

   

  we had one at KCRC and it fell apart after the first use...

    Note.. even the Johnson & Johnson kit that Wal-Mart carries at $10 is better than no kit at all....  Its not going to cover as major of an injury as the below list, but add an ace bandage and some 4X4's and its respectable. (and easilly available.... )

      Okay,

       

      After this weekend accident at the Knoxville pattern meet and people showing a interest in the kit I put together at our field here is a list and some pics.. I know there is other healthcare people out there looking at this, This a functional kit that I have spent may hours/day out on the wildland fire lines with and other activities in a fannypack. I have just downsized it for the RC field.

       

      If there is enough interest I can get kits made up with or with out the bag and send them out for cost plus shipping.

       



       

      Here is the list with QTY.

       

      1 -  1 inch x 10 yard tape

      5 -  5x9 Curity dressing

      12- 4x4's

      5 -  3 inch Kling

      3 - 7x12 Trauma dressing

      1 - CPR Mask

      1 - 4 oz. Cool Gel

      4 - Triangle bandages  

       

      With out the bag cost is approx $ 30.00 plus S&H and with bag I'll have to check.

      There is room to add stuff like bandaids and first aid spray ect.

       

      Not that much when you think your life might depend on it..

       

      Scott Anderson
