Survivor nigger here, don't know how else to call it, UNICEF, Red cross, combat tour, tourist. There's a separation between IFAK, which is for infantry who have to shelter in place, so it's got more gauze and tourniquet then usual, it's for people medics can't get to immediately. Theirs a field kit, which is more like a general medical kit, so has things like eye drops, antibiotics, it's the aggregate kit to prevent someone in the field actually needing to go to a field hospital. There is a surgical kit, which comes in large, medium, small, but the commonality is that it's for supplying to someone else, not yourself. It wouldn't be strange to be sewing up someone else and use the wounded person's IFAK on yourself because you didn't have one.If you aren't trained, IFAK, if you're trained but have to self-op, field kit. If you're a group medic, surgery kit. So if you're IFAK, spray on bandage because it can cover wide area injury, gauze patches, small saline, multi-tool (which normally is in you bags), fine tweezers, betadine, glue on stitchesMedicine is even more personal, I'm not a MD. ask one.
