Modern approaches to the development of standards for equipping first aid kits, bags and sets of medical equipment

A systematic process for the formation of a Standard for equipping first aid kits, bags and sets of medical equipment for providing first aid to military personnel is presented, based on the experience of a special military operation in Ukraine, an analysis of legislative and regulatory acts, as well as scientific literature. Detailed characteristics of the adopted Standard for equipping a first aid kit for an individual API, as well as a promising first aid kit for an API, are given. The design features of its improved design cover are described. Particular attention is paid to pairing first aid kits and medical bags with elements of combat equipment for military personnel. It has been shown that the use of first aid kits, bags and sets of medical equipment, modernized under the equipment standard, can significantly increase the survival rate of military personnel when wounded or injured when performing combat (combat training), special and other tasks.
