I'm a EM PGY2 looking to build a small kit for home emergencies. I have two little kids, totally healthy, no allergies. However, I want to make sure that in case something I'm not stuck with a lot of training and no tools. Do you guys have any realistic suggestions and brands that you trust? I'm considering, with varying degrees of insanity:
Cric kit
Jet ventilator
BVM
Epi-pen
Portable defibrillator
Pediatric Kelly clamp
Tourniquet
Splinting stuff
Broad spectrum abx
Pain meds
Suture kit
Antipyretics
Does anyone have experience making a kit like this? Brands that you like? Other suggestions? I realize that this is kind of over the top, but I live pretty far away from the nearest peds ED and the idea of one of my (or my neighbor's) kids circling the drain while I stand there seems to haunt me for some reason.
