BEST FIRST AID KIT FOR ALL YOUR ADVENTURES. MY MEDIC MYFAK

[@boxerridersgsa]

My friend, congrats. I´m myself a neurosurgeon and been around in traffic for about 45 years and you know what you´re doing (except for the beer😁😫) remember I live in Germany😂!! Great first aid kit! I´ve seen it all as you, I can imagine… great video!

[@markgraves6441]

Thanks! Great kit.

First minute in the video and got a subscriber to all

[@cornelclaassen5675]

If I may, and not to knock your kit, its a great kit overall. One thing though, please take those Rats TQ's and toss them. Rather replace them with proper proven (having been in the military and LE you know this) TQ's like the C-A-T TQ, SOF-T WIDE TQ, or the new TQ form RAPID-STOP. Also for bleeding control, take the time and do a proper Stop The Bleed course with a reputable instructor, there are many of them with you guys in the USA.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Hey thanks for watching the video. Just be clear, and I thought I mentioned it in the video, but maybe I didn’t, I do always carry a proper TQ as well. A few actually. Either in my riding vest or in my riding pack. The review was just to go over the kit and even though the RATS may not be proven to be as good as TQ it’s still better than nothing. And yes it’s alway import as I mention to have the proper training. Stop the bleed courses are excellent and I them every other year just to stay up to date. I appreciate the comment. And thanks again for watching

[@OMNIBAD]

Hey man how do you know that Rats TQ won’t save a life in a pinch?

[@timbuhler2012]

We leave in 11 days for the Wyoming BDR. I have been putting as much effort into my FAK as I am my camping gear and tools! From my time in the Military and even more later in life, having good quality first aid equipment is paramount! I have seen guys hit HARD on ADV routes. Most never seem to have given first aid much thought. It's not important until it is!

[@backcountryadvmoto]

100% agree. Have an amazing trip. I’m doing WY next month

[@icu_corey_rn_903]

I’m an ER nurse and this kit has pretty much Anything I’d want or need to handle first aide in the field chances are if I needed anything more than this I’d be calling 911 anyway. Only thing I’ve added is nitroglycerin tabs for the sudden chest pain situations

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Great input thanks for watching

[@WrightTries]

Its good practice when you buy a kit like that to un pack it and re pack it so that if you need it you have the muscle memory to find what you need fast

[@beyershurter8786]

Funny, drinking beer whilst "saving lives" LOL. Keep 'em coming, every episode is stellar!!

[@comfortablyunknown700]

Cool bag. Size, quality, and price are great. I have to point out the nasopharyngeal airway(NPA). One size does not fit all.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

very true. thanks for sharing

[@MeerkatADV]

This is true, though one size does fit most.

[@Hero4lyfe]

Great job at an overview. There is quite a few items in there. Something small but I liked was the electrolytes they added. HSAs and FSAs are going to be the best way to accumulate all that stuff for free or government paid depending on what your employer provides. Great review once again.

[@SashOkVR]

What about if you only know the basics? For using the tourniquet, chest seal, gauze packing, etc.

[@Cptkirk1315]

Yo man, have you seen this one? Adventure Medical Kits Mountain Series Mountaineer Medical Kit Its about 210 and has alot more goodies than the myfak. As a prior corpsman i would recommend it🤙🏻 although i do like the design of the myfaks pak better

[@michsky46]

I have similar , It think is condor! But coyote brown

[@carls.2071]

Confirm it’s water resistant not water proof. Makes a difference where you stow the kit. Should have used the White Claw poured over the kit as a liquid test demo.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

That is correct, water resistant. They do however have a waterproof version, but it is bigger.

[@NewBelgiumCO]

HAHAHA, you almost got me with that White Claw shit!!! I’m so for a FAK upgrade, I’ll have to take a look at these guys! ✌🏼

[@mikepark5884]

Ok thumbs up just for the Whiteclaw joke

[@Just_Enought_To_Be_Fun]

I have to build my own first aid kid (ifak) since I have often forgotten my main medical kit in the car. I have used a chocolate eggshell and it has gone pretty well. The experience makes me too confident for short walks to the point it can hurt :( I noticed I tend to intentionally forget my main medical kit in the car to save weight because "I can always jump back for it if needed". By "short walks" I mean mountain trips for 1-2 kilometers away from the car. I have used to consider this a small distance but suddenly realized that depending on the injury it could turn to a "far distance". Then I have started thinking of a solution. I have researched all mini medical kits. But then a problem occurs! As a difference to my mine medical kid where I have pills especially selected to my problems and often injuries all the kits that are sold out are with too basic equipment (bands, cotton, etc). I realized I already have these basics and could build my own kit. But in that kit, I'll add all the pills and tools I need. First I needed to find a stable and small enough box for it. Luckily my kids love chocolate eggs and I had a few plastic eggshells around. Get my main medical kit and start working. And tadaa! I believe I have prepared one of the smallest and full IFAK kits ever. (update: I have recently cut myself in the forest and this eggshell save me from bleeding) Here is what I've got in my pocket-size IFAK: Stomach help Active carbon Water purifying tablets Anty allergenic 2 x Safety Pins Hand sanitizer Straw Toothpaste Straw 3 x Bands Compressed Cotton Micro knife Do you have a mini IFAK with you? What can I add or remove from mine in your opinion?

[@ericgauthier8695]

Can never have enough saline flush ... great tools to have to help with those asphalt facials 😉

[@dpatt3997]

You need to try the voodoo ranger imperial one! It’s 9%

[@backcountryadvmoto]

I’ll check it out. Since this video, MyMedic also put out a moto specific kit. It’s good as well mymedic.com/products/moto-medic-motorcycle-first-aid-kit?variant=39348836728928&avad=299325_c278ee6c5

Quickclot is a mineral, not a chemical. "bandage impregnated with kaolin, an inorganic mineral that is both safe and effective in accelerating the body's natural clotting cascade without any exothermic reactions or use of animal or human proteins"

[@buk_wheat]

ill stick to my Budweiser....

[@aeri2396]

Now i know why is they made a afak

[@charlescordell6337]

Wait…my drinking vodka!

[@cadenarmy2087]

I cant drink for 7 years

[@kkhalifah1019]

Bloody hell how is that going to fit...

[@siamanonym2869]

Well as you talk it gets quite obviouls, that you don't really know, what all of this stuff is.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Hahaha ok 👍🏻 thanks for watching.

[@OMNIBAD]

Go fuck yourself Siam

[@backcountryadvmoto]

@@micah2767 haha, no because it’s a quick overview, and most of the other stuff was simple basic items like bandaids and aspirin. Thanks for watching.

[@micah2767]

@@backcountryadvmoto a really helpful video. Looking to get a kit for myself to carry in my backpack daily, and this was extremely helpful! Great choice of beer too!

[@patriotpicker79]

Way too expensive

[@OMNIBAD]

I bought all the items individually and built a First aid belt, cost me $100-200 but it’s pretty comprehensive and since i bought one or two items a week it gave me time to learn/train/build it up. Only thing I can’t get is local anesthetic with 2% lidocaine

[@MrNoNameForYou]

They overcharge. You could build an identical kit, bag included far cheaper.

[@backcountryadvmoto]

Guess it all depends on what your time is worth

[@MrNoNameForYou]

@@backcountryadvmoto I agree. It's a nice kit. I like it. But the time it takes an average person to work for the money to buy that is a decent amount. I think for our time we should learn to all build our own. Partly by watching videos like this.
