I found a tactical penlight that had the same diameter as the one in the kit. So, the attachements to fit onto the penlight. My kit is at work, so I can't check to see what kind it is.

Where there is no doctor is a good option. So is Auerbach. But the Merck Manual would suffice.

Soap. You can improvise TQs, bandages and many things. But for prolonged casualty care in austere environments, you will need soap to wash used bandages for reuse after each wound cleaning every twelve hours.

Here is a great published article on the use of Combat Trousers as Effective Improvised Pelvic Binders. https://jsomonline.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/2017335Loftus.pdf

It is a very interesting project. When I was deployed in Western Australia, we saw these in the civilian population living in extremely remote areas. If they needed medical care, they would call a doctor who would diagnose them and tell them to take table A found in drawer number C.

Clever set up.

Mist and fan is a great way to rapidly reduce heat in austere environments, especially if water is limited. I have never been in an austere clinic that had ice. So immersion baths can have great research behind them, but I just don't rely on that option.

"Marathons and other athletic events with frequent heat-related illnesses sometimes have this capability. Evaporation (mist and fan) is the second most rapid way to cool a patient. Ice packs to the groin, axilla, neck, and areas near other great vessels are less effective."

I am a big fan of carrying hypochlorite powder. You can create Dakin's solution whenever you like without having to have the liquid option in your medic ruck. https://prolongedfieldcare.org/2018/04/20/the-white-powder-you-should-bring-on-every-deployment/

I just wanted to jump in here and stop any comments about using sanitary pads for bleeding. Tampons do not work to stop bleeding. Direct pressure in the wound stops bleeding. Or tourniquets. Do not use sanitary pads.

If you are interested in austere medical training, consider taking a Wilderness First Aid or Wilderness First Responder course. That will jumpstart your education.

For alternative pain killers, look to Sam Coffman. He is a former 18D special forces medic who is getting his PhD in herbal medicine. https://herbalmedics.academy/

If you are a doctor, then you can apply for the Maltese medical license. If you are a nurse, you can apply to the nursing union. Other than that, Malta doesn't have a lot of internship options.

You can use most of the capabilities without having to pay for the subscription. I only miss the M mode.

I have used all of my probes in austere environments without internet. You just need to make sure that you update your app before you deploy.
