ResQ-Pak

ResQ-Pak- With a lot of campers and hikers being out on their own it is important to carry some type of first aid kit. ResQ-Pak takes first aid kits to the next level. ResQ-Pak is a trauma kit that needs to be included in your camping gear. ResQ-Pak!

Before Best Camping Gear Reviews gets in the details of the ResQ-Pak Hunting/Outdoor kit, we are going to give you a brief overview of ResQ-Pak and what it is designed for. ResQ-Pak is a growing company that specializes in emergency trauma kits. ResQ-Pak is designed to provide anybody with an emergency first aid kit for gunshot wounds, stab wounds, puncture wounds, bites, and other traumas. The ResQ-Pak is designed to stop the bleeding until you can get further medical treatment.

Starting off ResQ-Pak created personal trauma kits that were designed as police equipment. ResQ-Pak has now created a trauma kit for campers, hikers, and hunters after having so much success with the original ResQ-Pak. The theory behind the ResQ-Pak Hunting/Sporting kit is the same that is used for the police trauma kits. ResQ-Pak uses Quik-Clot and Celox in all of their emergency trauma kits. Quik-Clot is self-contained in a gauze or sponge that can be placed in a wound. Celox is a powder that can be poured into a wound. Both of the products act quickly to form a clot and stop the bleeding. Both Quik-Clot and Celox can be used by anybody without specialized training. They are very easy to use.

You may be thinking that an emergency trauma kit is way to big to pack in your camping gear but you are wrong. The ResQ-Pak is portable and can fit into a pocket. That is one of the biggest benefits of the ResQ-Pak kits. You can take these kits anywhere; the lake, the hike, the hunt, or just keep it around the campground. Camping and hunting injuries are quite frequent and with the high probability that emergency help is quite some distance away, ResQ-Pak trauma kits are valuable.

There are four versions of the ResQ-Pak designed for law enforcement (level 1, level 2, level 3, and level C) and one ResQ-Pak designed for camping gear (Hunting/Sporting). Because this is a camping gear review site we are only going to discuss the ResQ-Pak Hunting/Outdoor kit. For more information on the ResQ-Pak kits designed for police gear, check out this ResQ-Pak review.

ResQ-Pak Hunting/Outdoor

As Best Camping Gear Reviews mentioned earlier, the theory used in the Hunting/Outdoor kit is the same as the law enforcement kits.
