Wildland Medic Bag 

I love how sam apologizes for a lack of “studio” level quality while still having better audio and production better than just about any other youtuber in a studio.

As an WEMT I'm so hyped about this video. I wish there were more vids like this for WEMTs

Anesthesia in a stick...5cc syringe. 3cc Ketamine, 1 cc Midazolam, 1 cc Fentanyl. IV, IO or intraNasal. In adults, 2 cc bolus and look for nystagmus...yup, you’re there. If you need deeper sedation? Push additional 1 cc and flush with NS, then reassess. I’ve done amputations and reduced fracture-dislocations with it...I’ve never used it all unless on deployment/prolonged arrival of the medevac bird. Consider adding TXA...(oh yeah, SWATdoc/ER physician/TCCC instructor/Combat vet). Good loadout.

Thank you for helping us Coloradans during the wildfires. We really appreciate all the help. Stay safe and god bless.

Great kit!

I’m a recently graduated physician assistant who took a wilderness first responder course at Texas tech back in 2007 now I teach the class!!

Holy smokes wow that's a legitimate kit now...

If I am ever in a horrid situation, I hope i get someone like PrepMedic responding. The professionalism is astounding.

Hands down one of the best med kits I have ever seen. Good job!

I love this series and I follow it a lot on your channel, could I please put the subtitles in Spanish. Thank you very much.

Thank God for people like you and your skills. 👍

Training right now for this fire season with Wilderness Medics for fire line EMS…..this is extremely helpful so I don’t need to go through several iterations of a bag/Med set-up

Every time I see your black edition master cardiology I get bummed. Mine was a gift and got stolen from an ambulance and I never replaced it.

Outstanding kit, thanks for providing such informational content. If you continue operating in the wilderness environment, I'd recommend field stripping trash out of the MREs to cut weight/size and swapping the toilet paper for wet wipes.

Definitely would recommend adding suction. Airway has to be open and clear. Suction Easy is light and effective!

Great video. I would add space blankets as well.

Love your videos. Do a BLS bag next.

Bro I’m just can’t believe how much you’ve been able to fit in your bag, wow bro! What course or qualifications did you need to fill your bag with all those medications, sedatives, and pills? All I can say is wow! You are a mobile chemist

Difference between the civilian/LE quikclot and the military quikclot is the Military one is made in the USA and the Civilian/LE is made overseas.

Nice to see your RATS updated!

Nice pack overall but, not every good for wild land specific use. Unless the fire is in Afghanistan there is no need for that many chest seals. You need way more IV fluid and electrolyte replacement like Liquid IV. Also, probably need a way to cool someone. Heat and Rhabdo are the 2 biggest concerns on the fire line.

Best I've ever seen and everything explained in detail - awesome!

Nice setup. Nice bag. Stay safe

Sam is the man Love to have him as a teacher

Sam, I was watching another video from Live Rescue that was published a few days ago about the worst car accidents. I’m almost positive that at the 11:42-11:45 time stamp that you were the Paramedic assessing the patient. After watching as many videos of yours as I have, I can tell that voice from anywhere. I thought that was pretty cool to be able to see you somewhat in action, stay safe buddy.

I start my wilderness medic certification course next week. Thanks for this video.

Man I remember those old portable radios. They were huge and heavy but they could talk their butt off lol!

Great job on assembling your kit 👍

Damn your bag was better than my corpsman lol. Awesome set up

That pillbox is great I already have a pelican case almost that exact size that I will be converting into a booboo/OTC box tomorrow!

Interesting to see an EMS agency still carrying a low concentration versed, I most commonly now see 5mg/mL concentration for IM/IN seizure control. Why the 1mg/mL?

Hey bro you should do videos of you responding to things, you know like helmet can videos and stuff. Idk if you do those or not but can't find any. Those are always cool

So this is amazing and Incredibly helpful. thank you for making it . how much does this bag weigh? And how much does your chest pack weigh?

Great video and very informative. What would you recommend as a loadout for a Wilderness EMT working wildland fires versus your paramedic gear?

Great video! Thanks for putting it together. What editing / graphics software do you use?

Excelent vid! I would like to have 50% of your knowledge! Congrats

No Kerlix, 4x4s, 2x2s, ABD pads? I have a medical bag set up similar to this one. I used a 5.11 Rush 72. Maybe one day I will do a video on it. Mine is more set up for a grid down SHTF/WROL situation tho. It has the contents of about 4 high quality IFAKs plus tons of gauze, tape, gloves. It also has saline and I.V. kits, Field Surgery Kit, Skin Staplers, and antibiotics. The admin pouch has boo boo stuff and otc meds. Way more stuff, but too much to list. I even have a collar and back brace from where i was in a gnarly car wreck where I died a few times and lost most of my blood. I collapsed a lung, tore my aorta, broke my spine in two places, broke 8 ribs, removed spleen, shattered pelvis and dislocated hip, broke femur, knee replacement, and broke foot. That experience was ass garbage.

Have you thought about doing a prolonged field care bag?

Outstanding !!! Thanks for sharing...

I am currently in the Army and planning on pursuing the PA career path. Someday should I end up getting out, woking with wildland firefighters is something that is very interesting to me. Is most medical care provided solely by paramedics? Or is there a need/requirement in the wildland medical structure for PA's. Thanks!

im wondering about a fire shelter i know that on your your chest rig video you said that your not fireline medic but have the capability to become fireline medics but surly it would still be wise to have a fire shelter especially if you have to treat a patient that might be near to the fireline

Have you ever seen or used those TacMed phantom or ultralight poleless litters? We used them a lot in my WFR course and our instructor said he uses them a lot on his SAR's. It might be cool to do a review a $40 2lb packable litter that I don't see much of anywhere else on youtube

Hey man great channel! I’m thinking about getting a RATS but my concern is hydration. Is there a way that you can possibly slip in or attach a camel back. Trying to use this for more long distance foot movements.

Never bad to carry Narcan into the woods if you carry Fentanyl and Morphins... never know when somebody‘s getting too stoned to properly breathe. The level of treatment this pack can deliver is extremely high - even having a proper backup airway for your RSIs. Only thing I might thing about adding is - as you said - at least a colorimetric etCO2 detector (as long as you don‘t have the EMMA) and I would think about some solution for splinting a pelvis would be really great! As you mentioned, some fractures can really make you bleed like sh!t internally, and the pelvis is the leading structure that‘s gonna make you bleed out!

2 qestions Why do you carry 100mg/ml ketamine? seems a super high concentration especially if you are giving Ket for analgesia. could easily make a drug error. Secondly you said you currently have no ETCO2 monitoring, however you state you can do an RSI with this pack. I am not sure about the US but in the UK ETCO2 monitoring is essential when doing this procedure which is definitely justified. Whats your thoughts on this?

Wow I just got an education, looking to put first aid kit to gather for the semi 50 years on the road stopping for all kinds of things given up t shirts, sheets, blankets many times dressings would do the job . Seen just about everything.

Have you looked into the Athena GTX monitor with the miniCap for wildland or tactical applications?

Is everything in your pack personally yours or is it from your job? If it is your personal bag how are you able to carry the medications ?

I can’t wait to become a Paramedic😁

Do you pay for your own medical equipment or just have it supplied?

I need to work with your service.

i have a question. how do you see this pack changing as it gets closer to winter?

What does medical control look like for a job like this, and who supplies the narcotics/equipment?

Magnifique vidéo ! j'adore

Even though this is from last year, if you're still using that flashlight (despite it not being bad or anything) you should look at an Olight Perun 2, it's pretty amazing and has a lot of power in a small package and the battery lasts a long time too unless you put it on full boost (lights the place up as if it was day time).. I've recently purchased one to use during night deployments or in darker places. You can also clip it onto your hat or chest so it allows you to work with both hands

That moment when you have no medical background but understood what half of the stuff he mentioned are. "Most notably Narcan"🤣

Man I'm a line medic on a hotshot crew from Columbia gorge Oregon. You are carrying way to much weight. You should pair down or you'll be the one getting treat. Hydration and blister Care are main priority. Carry a box of jello mix for glucose to save weight. Extra socks for crew and extra boot laces. I carry a kings with mini bvm that's it for airway. Zofran and Imodium and your main narcs your ll use with minor pain management every once in awhile. Traction split is worthless, establish a distal pulse and go. I work with the sawyers most of the time as a wedge man and medic 2nd. Then you walk out with crew boss so your day is the longest so cut weight were you can.

I'm curious about the practice of "drawing what you need" out of a vial as opposed to drawing it up and diluting it to a push dose or maybe drawing up the full vial in a few syringes- it seems keeping multiple partially drawn vials is not the best idea especially since you have removed one major safty feature (the cap) which offers protection from the elements as well as an additional level of checks and balances with color coding (although it can be argued people take shortcuts with cap colors and drugs like atropine and fentanyl can easily get mixed up). But I am wondering if there is a perspective about this aproach. Also it seems like diversion could also be a lot more of an issue of you dont draw it all up and then theoretically the syringe is contaminated as soon as it comes in contact with the patient.

I forgot my trormar shears , like a dog handler forgetting his dog . I will just go and borrow one .

Thanks for sharing!

I’m looking for the clamp you have for head lacs, any direction you can point me in would be appreciated.

Sorry for the ignorant question, I don't know anything about the field or profession. I looked up the bag and was blown away by the price. You don't have to pay for your own gear for what you do do you?!

Great kit. Where did you source your clear medication box?

What is the name brand and model of the clear med box? I have various sizes I use but I like how this one has the space for the syringes and needles on the bottom. Thanks in advance.

I was wondering where do you get your supplies? I am finishing up my EMT and I want to build a kit to carry. Any suggestions?

Strong boy

How often do you rotate or replace items? Chest seals? Does any equipment require replacement?

When you are in the wilderness doing an intervention, do you sometimes need to improvise and use stuff you find on the ground (for example branches, plantes, detritus, etc.)?

Nice bag !!!!

Is "deployment" a real fire fighter term? I've only heard that in a military context

Wow wow 🤩 great 👍🏻

Hey boss, we are looking at consolidating our Narcs down to one storage option. Less moving parts on scene. What was the brand and model of the blue Narcs bag at 12:12? Also, do you have any updated rigid options for storing Narcs. We keep ours on the medic in a safe, but when we administer, we take them out and have to keep track of the case/bag. Thanks for the info!

I salute you, sinister medic. If you allow this poor necromancer to give you an advice, carry lights, many lights, for the forest are unholy and dreadful creatures lurks in the darkness. I salute you from my Dark Tower. 🦇💀☠️💀🦇

Please do a comparison video of less expensive bags. In case anyone is wondering, this bag cost $725.

Holy bag o bittys, Batman! -_- Really though, I'd feel pretty good knowing you had my back. Cheers

What are the most common injuries in the backcountry? I feel like people either pack a trauma room or boo boo band aids, not much in between for individual carry

I've been a diabetic since I was 12 and ever since my first visit they've told me glucagon is sensitive to light so I shouldn't open my glucagon container unless I need it but I noticed you keep yours in a clear container. So I guess my question is do I really need to worry about light denaturing my glucagon?

Have you found a glucometer that is rugged-ized? All of ours seem to break at the worst moments or runs out of battery.

nice pack

You ever burned anyone with the hot pad blanket?

What box do you use to hold your drugs? I'm looking for a similar one for my kit and yours is the perfect size.

Hey do you've any recommendations for a relatively similar cheaper alternative to the pack?

Actually sam, food is a high priority in survival

Thats a lot of kit to leave at the door when you stack up to go into a house and leave it unsupervised especially if it’s at your personal expense

How did you obtain the medication for your kit? Is this a work med kit?

What do think of the Alivecor ekg both one and six-lead units - very small Bluetooth to cell phone

god those yellows look nice and clean lmao

Have you ever came across the kendrick traction splint?

When you were out there how did you re stock your kit ?

Sir have you gone into a SAR pack. If not emt based comments would be helpful

Have you made your kit for swat and wilderness mwd yet would love to know for our team kit

Can you do a video on supraglottic airways?

Does the ready heat have foil on the inside?

AAAAAAH I NEED A MEDIC BAG

Glad you got that Heat wrap for Hypothermia, you might need it tonight.

Still no hydrogel dressings like BurnTec (even US Marines IFAK does have it) - in my opinion for wildfire kit it is a must. It does not take a lot of place. Is there any reson for not having it?

What is your opinion on the HSGI Reflex IFAK?

Aqui no Brasil uma bolsa dessa custaria uns 10 mil reais

Its colorado so he's in SOUTH METRO EMS??

This may or may not be related, but I live in California and would a P100 respirator help with inhaling the smoke/ash of a wildfire? (or even a house fire?)
