Kit in a pouch

[the-gnole]

I got a PLCE trauma pouch a few years back to carry whilst out doing some small animal shooting, as there is often more than just myself and some of the other shooters carry other types of firearms there is a bit extra in there for any incident, also covers a few other first aid incident scenarios as well.

Good idea to have airways, a 'medium' oral airway fits most people, a better choice are naso-pharyngeal airways (NPA) as they can be put into people who are having seizures.

You have to be careful with oral airways as if not correctly inserted they can push the tongue back and block the airway.

Neither type guarantees a clear airway (but are an aid) its more about positioning the patient and draining fluids.
