What Are the Different Types of First Aid Products?

First aid equipment In a broad sense, all equipment that can save lives in a short time is first aid equipment. What we usually call first aid equipment belongs to the narrow scope, which is mainly the necessary conventional medical equipment to rescue patients in hospitals. It includes a cardiac defibrillator, a simple respirator, a heart compression pump, a negative pressure fracture fixation device, and an oxygen cylinder. Multifunctional rescue bed, negative pressure suction device, automatic gastric lavage machine, micro-injection pump, quantitative infusion pump, etc., as well as first-aid equipment needed for tracheal intubation and tracheotomy. Equipment for monitoring systems, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) devices, peritoneal dialysis and blood purification systems.

First aid equipment

First aid equipment is broad and narrow.

In a broad sense, all equipment that can save lives in a short time is first aid equipment.

The advancement of modern medicine has given new concepts and connotations to emergency medicine. For example, the call for help system has been changed from running to telephone and computer processing, and the means of transportation has been changed from horseback to horseback.

In addition to the necessary conventional medical equipment, each bed has a central oxygen supply (even some supply of 50% N2 and O2 mixed gas) and two high and low pressure central suction devices, infusion bottle suspension devices, and bedside monitors ( Includes ECG, blood pressure, body temperature, and oxygen saturation monitoring functions), ventilator, ECG monitor, cardiac defibrillator, ultrasound Doppler, simple respirator, cardiac compression pump, negative pressure fracture fixation device, and oxygen cylinder. Multifunctional rescue bed, negative pressure suction device, automatic gastric lavage machine, micro-injection pump, quantitative infusion pump, etc., as well as first-aid equipment needed for tracheal intubation and tracheotomy. Monitoring system, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) device, peritoneal dialysis and blood purification system, laryngoscope for tracheal intubation, tracheal tube with balloon, various models with cuffed tracheostomy tube, with valve airway Tee tube, deep venous catheter (single, double or triple cavity), closed chest drainage device, urine hydrometer, blood glucose meter, urine sugar test supplies, etc. In addition to the conventional equipment in the general ward, nursing equipment should include computer infusion pumps, microinjection pumps, ultrasonic nebulizers, artificial noses, aspirators, suction tubes, transfusion compression belts, deep vein nutrition bags, electric blankets, and ice caps A well-equipped emergency vehicle equipped with rescue equipment and first-aid drugs.

Movable equipment includes mechanical ventilator, compressed air machine, humidifier, ECG monitor, cardiopulmonary resuscitation equipment vehicle. This vehicle is equipped with laryngoscope, tracheal intubation, various joints and ventricular fibrillation defibrillator, manual assisted balloon replacement, and emergency medicine. When possible, there should also be respiratory frequency, rhythm and temperature monitors and multi-channel hemodynamic monitors to monitor central venous pressure, mean arterial pressure, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, pulmonary wedge pressure, or left atrial pressure : Various parameters of lung function, such as tidal volume, vital capacity, lung compliance and the amount of inhaled and exhaled air, the determination of PaO2 and PaCO2, and changes in blood pH. In terms of monitoring cardiac output, some ICUs use the difference in central temperature and peripheral toe temperature, and changes in blood oxygen bubbles and degrees to monitor the quality of microcirculation.
