    I volunteer as a shooting sports instructor with the Boy Scouts and NRA instructor. I had the pleasure of meeting Nurse Amy at a recent gun/prepped show in Atlanta. She is an absolute gem to speak with. My kit arrived today and it is wonderful. Will be a very nice addition to my camping equipment... Thanks, Nurse Amy.

    Well, I actually make these bags for us originally. Mostly I want to share what I would put into a medium prepper bag, so feel free to print out the content lists and DIY!! I only make these bags for those who would like to have them already packed. Thanks for your good wishes, Nurse Amy

    Great video....Consider this as well. `TAMPONS~ for bullet wounds...Vaseline strips for chest wounds (lungs). What you have , we carried. These additional items I stated, were carried by each officer on our SRT. Now retired after 25 yrs in law enforcement....15 of those yrs as a Counter Sniper. Again , great video.

      Bobby C. Don’t use tampons for wound packing bleeding still occurs under the wound and does not promote hemostasis. Use X stat, Celox rapid, or combat gauze if you are to pack anything into a wound those products have kaolin which promotes cohagulation but stimulating factor 12 and can stop arterial hemorrhage. You can also pack it deeper into a wound.

    Great video. Having been an EMT, an ER Technician and Army Medic I have to say, over all a great video. The scissors are nice. But "EMT" otherwise known as "Trauma Shears" work faster and go through denim no problem. I would use those scissors for cutting off old bandages if needed. The non sterile gauze in the wound? Maybe. Depends on how severe the bleeding is? I mean if it is severe, slap it in. If you can, I'd use the sterile. The chux pad is a great addition. I would add some Xeroform gauze for when it just can not stick to the wound. Maybe some butterfly closures too. Never hear the Raw Honey part so I'll have to look into it.

    • @DrBonesNurseAmy
      @DrBonesNurseAmy  9 років тому +1

      +Kelly Lynn Hi Kelly, Thanks for your comments! It is not necessary to use sterile gauze to stop bleeding, remember you will be cleaning the wound before you bandage it. Also, the "non-sterile" gauze is still clean and the wound is bleeding. If you have to time and tons of supplies, sterile gauze is fine to stop bleeding, but again, it is not needed. There is triple antibiotic ointment so you can add that to the non-stick sterile gauze and create a better non-stick gauze, but there are several non-stick gauze in the kit already. There are steri-strips which function as the butterfly bandages do, so that is covered as well. You will find amazing research on raw honey, which is now used in hospitals as well these days "Medi Honey". Thanks! Nurse Amy :-)

      Trauma shears as you call them are based on the scissors shown in the video, those scissors are used in Hospital trauma, most of them cut better than “trauma shears” such as Xshears or raptors and are quite ligther.

    I was watching to see if there are any things that maybe I should add to my trauma / 4th Aid packs, the only thing I didn't have in my packs was the honey. I was well aware of the medical benefits and uses of honey, but hadn't thought about adding it to my trauma packs.
    4th Aid is what I call my version of a combat medic pack, with 1st aid being the equivalent of an ifak, 2nd and 3rd in between those.
    Some things you might consider adding to that bag are Vaseline, a lighter, Benadryl, and CPR mask.

    • @DrBonesNurseAmy
      @DrBonesNurseAmy  6 років тому

      Hi Son of Liberty! I do have a CPR mask in the kit now (hanging on the outside strap for quick use). My three larger kits all have waterproof matches, vaseline and benadryl. So I totally agree with your assessment! I have also added large Celox, a CAT or SOF-T TQ and more items now. Thanks so much for the feedback! Amy ;-)

      No! No tampons for bullet wounds bad! Use combat gauze, X stat, chito gauze, or celox rapid take any up to date medical course and know how to use that stuff also Tourniquets are not bad guys there has been documented cases of tourniquets being on limbs as long as 10 hours without nerve or vascular damage. You can also convert TQ’s down by packing wounds and wrapping because the kaolin In Combat gauze can stop arterial hemorrhage

    Hi Nurse Amy, I was a Navy Corpsman and Navy Nurse Corps officer in my past and I would have never thought to put honey (full of sugar that bacteria love) on a wound before dressing it. How can you compare it to the application of any other of the modern medical ointments you mention...bacitracin and silvadene? I'm just curious.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    • @DrBonesNurseAmy

      from this link: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21479349
      "Honey's antibacterial properties and its effects on wound healing have been thoroughly investigated. Laboratory studies and clinical trials have shown that honey is an effective broad-spectrum antibacterial agent. This paper reviews data that support the effectiveness of natural honey in wound healing and its ability to sterilize infected wounds. Studies on the therapeutic effects of honey collected in different geographical areas on skin wounds, skin and gastric ulcers, and burns are reviewed and mechanisms of action are discussed. (Ulcers and burns are included as an example of challenging wounds.) The data show that the wound healing properties of honey include stimulation of tissue growth, enhanced epithelialization, and minimized scar formation. These effects are ascribed to honey's acidity, hydrogen peroxide content, osmotic effect, nutritional and antioxidant contents, stimulation of immunity, and to unidentified compounds. Prostaglandins and nitric oxide play a major role in inflammation, microbial killing, and the healing process. Honey was found to lower prostaglandin levels and elevate nitric oxide end products. These properties might help to explain some biological and therapeutic properties of honey, particularly as an antibacterial agent or wound healer. The data presented here demonstrate that honeys from different geographical areas have considerable therapeutic effects on chronic wounds, ulcers, and burns. The results encourage the use of honey in clinical practice as a natural and safe wound healer."

    • @tetontom1
      @tetontom1 6 років тому +1

      No, thank you Mike. Just stumbled on to this old post. You're right about the honey. Honey is and will always be considered bacteriostatic. I wouldn't use it on wound treatment.... last effort maybe. Meaning it does not promote the growth or regrowth of bacteria and should not be considered an antibiotic. Mildly acidic and the little bit of peroxide formed as a breakdown by-product does help some. Works better ingested as a therapy for water and foodborne problems. Throw a few packets in with the MREs. Keep some in your food supply. Bacitracin and silvadene is pure garbage and gets thrown straight in the garbage can. I refuse to use it. And you might of guessed...... FMF/gen scrub/trauma scrub having been stuck running ER in at that time the Navy's premiere training hospital. I've never had a secondary infection and that training hosp maintained a 0% secondary infection rate unlike civilian hospitals which I've seen a 5-20% secondary infection rate..... I haven't got one good thing to say about all those civilian MDs and RNs..... pure garbage.

I keep normal med stuff in the bathroom for everyday use but my emergency kits are tucked away for a bad situation.

      Hi LKN4WAR! Medihoney is still Raw honey. Medihoney is sterilized by gamma irradiation, ensuring the removal of Clostridium botulinum spores, which may or may not be in non-irradiated Raw honey. Medihoney is not "cooked" with heat, so it is still active like Raw honey. Medihoney is much more expensive. Thanks for writing to us! Nurse Amy :-)
