US Military Issue Individual First Aid Kit

Product Description: The IFAK will be issued to every Soldier via the Soldier as a System (SaaS) Rapid Fielding Initiative (RFI). Weighing one pound, the IFAK will consist of expendable medical items packaged inside of a modified MOLLE 100 round SAW ammo pouch.To get more news about шлемы, you can visit rusuntacmed.com.ru official website.

Benefit Against the Threat: The IFAK increases individual Soldier capabilities to provide Self- Aid / Buddy-Aid and provides interventions for two leading causes of death on the battlefield, severe hemorrhage and inadequate airway. These capabilities increase Soldier survivability during dispersed operations and the expandable pouch allows for METT-C specific.

Fielding and Ordering Guidance: The IFAK is included as a component of the RFI fielding schedule and will address all deployed and deploying units.Tourniquets are the go-to tool of choice these days to manage extremity hemorrhage. There is, as of this writing, more than 18 years of evidence from the GWOT attesting to its safety and efficacy. The erroneous stigma previously associated with tourniquet use must be deleted from your thought process and replaced with current paradigms based on medical evidence. You should immediately raise your suspicions towards those not advocating the use of tourniquets, or those making baseless statements such as “you will lose the limb” These should be red flags such thinking is based on significantly outdated, disproven, and misleading information.

There are a number of suitable choices in this category, the CAT Gen 7 & SOF-T-W Gen 4, are a very popular choice, but there have been some excellent new tourniquets added to the Co-TCCC recommendation list. These are the SAM XT, the M2 & M3 Ratcheting TQ, and the Tactical Mechanical Tourniquet. We will not make any specific recommendation for this or any other item, we prefer you to make your choice on what would be best for you. However, the CAT seems to be a perennial favorite simply because of the abundance of research and evidence in its favor, and it is very easy to apply one-handed. The SOF-T-W is very popular as well due to its durability and the quick-detach strap, making it easy to put on and take off.

Once you figure out which TQ is best for you, go ahead and get two! Evidence suggests that one tourniquet placed high on a thigh may occlude blood flow only 70% of the time; you may need to have two accessible. This will increase the chances of success and improve survivability. It also makes good practice to have a spare in the event that you have more than one casualty. It is a great approach in any scenario.

In the event that two appropriately placed tourniquets next to the other cannot control the bleeding, you should then consider packing the injured site. Wounds to the junctional areas, neck, groin, axilla, and even some of the subclavian vessels cannot be managed with a tourniquet and will require the knowledge and skill of wound packing. Note: wound packing as an initial intervention is entirely appropriate in the absence of a tourniquet.

Packing an injury requires the use of either cotton or hemostatic gauze. A hemostatic dressing such as Combat Gauze has been proven to be beneficial in dealing with these wound patterns, but they can be of benefit to those that have less experience with managing these injuries. These are products impregnated with either Kaolin or Chitosan, substances that are proven to speed up the clotting process via two separate mechanisms. These gauzes do not necessarily work “better”, they simply work “faster”, and this can have some obvious benefits given the tactical situation and the experience of the user.
