Premium Trauma IFAK Compact Kit with CAT Tourniquet & Chest Seals

This is the 3rd MediTac Premium Trauma IFAK we have purchased for our sportsman's club over the past few years. I am in charge of making sure they are intact and the items have not expired. Our two original kits have already had items replaced and are up to date. The most recent purchase will go in our new Trap House now that it has been rebuilt. The other two are in the main clubhouse and at the Rifle/Pistol Range in a weatherproof Nanuk #904 enclosure. As an EMT, I will be holding another fist aid class for club members to demonstrate how to use the items in the kits.

Exactly as described. Took a bit longer than expected to arrive, but it arrived nonetheless.

Compact penetrating trauma first aid kit. Very compact and light for specifically handling penetrating trauma wounds (no extra frills that a standard first aid kit already has). I added a thoracentesis catheter and blood clotting gauze.

Amazing stuff and ready to go!! I also ordered the bigger kit and my oh my is it loaded with everything you need. I'm gonna order a second!!

This was an okay buy

This is perfect. Everything you need in one kit. Ready to go at a moment’s notice. Everything is standard quality and I think it is a great addition to my activities.

Exactly as described

I work in Law Enforcement. I have a bunch of kits like this one. Some are better than others but the biggest deal about this kit is the CAT Tourniquet. I have seen tourniquets used and I have seen other off-brands fail and applying a tourniquet is not the time you want an equipment failure. I trust CAT. The kit is small and easy to store. Lightweight and easy to grab when you need to move.

Having one of these kits at home is vital for keeping a situation under control until proper medical care is available. My sister is a retired pediatrician, and she was quite impressed with everything that came with the kit. You hope you'll never have to use it, but it does ease my mind knowing that I have it available if required.

Quality:This kit is more or less complete except for elastic bandages. There's plenty of room to add your own. The key differentiator on this item is that all the pieces are high quality name brand components.Expirations..The quickclot gauze (purchased 8/22 has an expiration of 5/27 or about 5 years)The First Aid Only chest seals have a expiration of 10/26 or about 4 yearsValue:The QC gauze, Chest Seals and CAT tourniquet will run you close to $100 for the other components in the kit it isn't a bad value.Final thought:I don't use these items daily so I did have to research them a bit and found these are high quality and worth the price considering their usage. For a casual First Aid kit this may be overkill but if you anticipate needing these items: tourniquet, quick clot gauze, vented chest bandages, this kit is a reasonable value that I would recommend.

We spend a lot of time away from home, RV camping. So, in the interest of being prepared, I carry a first aid kit with us all the time. This kit is much smaller than I expected and to be completely honest, I was a little disappointed when I first saw it in person. But the quality and selection of the items in the kit are pretty impressive. Most of the items are high quality recognizable brands and are made in the USA.I won’t recap all the items because you can see that in the description, but I will say that I am happy to have it and hope to never need it!

This is a great trauma kit! I'm happy to have this kit but hope I never have to use. I feel good being prepared though. I appreciate that this kit is compact and contains the important trauma essentials without being redundant to basic first aid kits. It seems pretty good quality, although I haven't had to use any of the items yet.

I am not a professional, but I wanted something like this to have on hand in case of an emergency. This is a Trauma kit and an assortment of quality items are included in the kit. I do think the price for the kit is a bit high, but it is convenient and includes all of the basic items. Overall, this is a great kit to have. Make sure to familiarize yourself with everything before you need to use it!

 I like the small bag. I can easily attach it to the outside of my emergency backpack. The kit has the items needed in case of a trauma injury. It doesn't come with any information or guide. It's not great but it wasn't difficult to find videos online explaining what everything is for and how to use it. The kit is priced higher than others I've seen on here. I'm not well versed in trauma kits but based on the amount of items and the quality of the kit I think it's a bit expensive. I do like it though. You never know when you'll find yourself in a situation where you'll need to use it. It's good to have on hand.

After moving into a new home we needed a first aid kit and this set is a great starter pack. It has all the necessities that you need to feel prepared for minor injuries. The included bag also makes it easy to transport in case you need to take it with you on a trip.

Well thought out kit. Contains name brand med supplies. It has everything needed to control major hemorrhaging from an auto accident, gun shot wound, or other major trauma. Compact enough to keep in the car or a go bag. My husband is a first responder and has already gotten some use out of this kit in the field. No complaints, great kit.

This MediTac Trauma IFAK Kit comes in a nice little molle bag - the whole this is actually much more compact than I was expecting, which is a GOOD thing! My husband is an avid bicyclist and we also do a lot of hiking and canoeing and this is something small and easy to bring along. The bag has a sturdy plastic buckle and straps with metal snaps so that I can attach it to my backpack or dry bag and no chance of losing it.As for the contents - it's better quality stuff than other first aid / trauma kits I've bought online. The tourniquet is a real North American Rescue CAT, not a knockoff - in fact, pretty much everything in the kit is brand-name and trustworthy.I hope I never have to put any of it to the test - but my husband is a first responder and firefighter and I'm sure he'll end up using something in the kit at some point!

I put one of these kits in my car and sent one to my favorite teacher. In emergencies this trauma kit will be essential to save lives.The kit contains items for trauma injury like gun shot wounds or trauma of a car accident. Included in the kit are a tourniquet, ""trauma"" dressing and bleeding control productsThis is all in a very sturdy carrying case pack. I believe it has a ""CAT"" tourniquet, some vented ""chest seals"", a ""trauma bandage"" and some quick clotting gauze.My only concern is you might want to buy two as these items seem like they would ruin out fast. They include a pair of EMT shears (but they are not very strong), a rescue blanket, some nitrile gloves and a marker.I really like the sturdy bag which is designed to be a holder for all of these items (they fit in it well).A very good value for emergencies.

I've used a few 1st aide kits. This one is certainly better than average. Most kits have the basics, but are lacking when it comes to application. This one includes a pair of medical scissors, which can really be handy for resizing a bandage, or removing used ones.The bag is pretty nice and it has some loops, which allows you to put it on a belt or pack.The bandages are average quality. They get the job done.This is a nice home kit. It's not professional level, but it's above average for a home kit.

Always a good idea to research anything you put into your first aid kit. this kit might seem intimidating if you don’t research and know how to use your supplies in a crisis.There are some quality products in this bag but there are some filler cheap stuff that I don’t see as being worth the price tag.I do like the tourniquet, it is a decent one 👍🏻I do like the vented chest seals and trauma gauze 👍🏻The rest of the stuff is good too but I’m not sure it’s all going to accumulate into enough to be worth the price.

I really wish it came with a flash card or waterproof instructions, so I would know how to use the items if I was under duress. I like that the bag was not filled to the brim when it came, because I had additional items I wanted to shove in and everything fit great. I hope heat doesn’t damage it, because I’m keeping it in the back of my car in the south. I hope I never need to use it, but it's very nice to have!

This trauma kit very good. It has everything that a person would need in case of a trauma wound. Everything was packaged well in the case. This kit will work on all Molle compatible gear as well. I would recommend this kit for anyone that wishes to prepare for accidents that may happen during hunting season or sporting events.

This kit takes first aid to the next level. This is the type of kit I would expect to see a first responder carrying. Very well packed and with a much higher level of trauma items then in the typical bandage and burn cream kits. We used this right away for our son who had been in a car accident. Rather than go to the drug store for his supplies we just used a lot of the goodies found in this great kit. My son loved this so much he borrowed it for the duration of his healing as this also had tools to easy bandage removal and wound care. All this comes in a great durable bag with plenty of space for adding your favorite or most used items.
