Thanks guys, I appreciate the input.

Get on scene, walk in the front door and a male in early 20s says and I quote "I swallowed my grill man". Admitted to a couple (of 3) beers (probably smoking weed too, but as PD was on scene, sure wasn't going to admit it), fell asleep and swallowed his gold cosmetic dental front plate.

I'm a Black Belt and Instructor in a combat martial arts style (as opposed to a sport art). Every month all of the black belts and instructors gather for a training camp. I do mean a camp. I have become the defacto medical provider and am looking for a jump kit. I need a backpack. It needs to be subdued preferably black for various training reasons. It needs to carry basic airway management supplies, an O2 tank, and standard trauma supplies (4x4, bulk dress, kerlex, etc.). Room for a couple of C-Collars would be nice. I've found the Blackhawk MED-7 seems to fit the bill but most every thing else I've found doesn't have a place for a O2 tank. Any suggestions. Don't need any thing as large as the STOMP II. Thanks

I've found that around here not a lot of people have bothered with the new standards. I even had a code a was working a few weeks ago where the medic with a local fire dept., who also works part time with my service, tried to jump my throat on scene for "improper ventilations".

The shortest transport time I've heard of in our service was for an unconscious behind the wheel of a car in a local hospital parking lot. Nurses said it was out of their scope of practice.
