As I have shared in many of my other reviews, I have been slowly been building a bug out bag for emergency situations. Obviously medical supplies is a necessity for any emergency kit so I have been looking for a lightweight, comprehensive medical kit to put in my pack. This particular kit caught my eye because of its light weight (only 15 oz.) and compactness so it can easily be packed along all my other gear. When it arrived I was pleased with the build of the carrying case, it was pliable but seemed well built. Opening up the kit I was impressed with how it was packaged. On one side you have labeled zipper pouches containing wound/burn/blister/sprain materials and on the other side pouches for bandages/medical tools/medical information. The little booklet that comes within the kit is wonderful, it contains a comprehensive set of rules and information about how to deal with any type of situation (from choking to wound irrigation to splints etc.) but what really impressed me was the little inserted guidelines that showed you how to deal with these situations on the spot with no medical supplies and only basic tools (knife, shirt, etc.) so that you will still be covered if you are without a kit or without some of the necessary supplies.
There is a larger kit made by the same company called the weekender kit (Adventure Medical Kits Weekender Kit) that comes with more gear and such in it and I would advise you to give it a look over as well, but I wanted something smaller and more compact to use in my bag.
Also, I would suggest supplementing this kit by adding a 25 g and 50 g quickclot packs (QuikClot Sport Regular 25G by Adventure Medical Kits and Quikclot Sport Brand Advanced Clotting Sponge ,Stop Bleeding Fast, 50 Gram Package) or CELOX First Aid (CELOX First Aid Temporary Traumatic Wound Treatment 2g, 10-Pack and CELOX First Aid Temporary Traumatic Wound Treatment 25g.) for controlling heavy bleeding, these hemostatic products are a wonderful addition for any medical kit. Also, maybe think about a suturing kit as well for wound closure so you ware not only relying on closing strips for wound closure.
This kit provides a nice comprehensive set up for grab and go medical supplies for either the hiking enthusiast or for someone looking for a compact kit to throw in an emergency bag.

Must Have Apr 06, 2010
By Vince Biasiotta
"Tr00per"
You do not want to be with out one of these. Have used adventure medical kits for years , always reliable with the right supplies. This is ideal for exactly what the name says, Day trips. I supplement this kit with Water-Jel burn gel and a Quickclot sponge God forbid i should need it, but you want this. less than a pound and fits in any compartment of my backpack. Ideal personal med kit, would recommend this to anyone.

Perfect for day hikes... Aug 24, 2010
By J. Worosylo
"J. W."
So I just got back from a 9 mile hike in the rockies and this kit worked out perfectly. Thankfully, i didn't have to use it but its light-weight and small size made it quite easy to carry up to the continental divide.
It has everything you need for a a day hike and any unforeseen mishaps. With this kit, you can travel with confidence knowing you have the tools at your disposal incase there is an injury on the trail.
I would recommend this for day hikes.

Better than typical prepackaged kits Aug 12, 2011
By LgT
This is the kit to take on hikes and camping trips, whether for one person or multiple. It's small and light enough to easily fit into a back pack, but comes with enough supplies for serious capabilities way beyond the typical band-aid solution. There's also room in the bag for additional items, like extra pads, dressing, Quickclot, and small medical shears. Most importantly, it comes with an informative guide on treating various types of injuries, which you should read before an injury happens.
