Adventure First Aid Kits
using Vicodin (hydrocodone) in case of emergency (first aid)?
I do a lot of adventures and backcountry snowboarding. If I'm doing something serious I always keep a good first aid kit with me. On one occasion, the friend who was with were fractured elbow while snowboarding, and suffered serious. It was not serious enough to be required to be flown by helicopter or something, but it was 2 or 3 hours before they could reach the hospital. Whatever OTC pain had was the murderers as ibuprofen and aspirin, and wish I had something stronger, such as hydrocodone to find him. I could get hydrocodone people I know and trust that one remaining of the surgeries. Do you think it is wise to have this in my first aid kit and administer to emergency? I know it's illegal, but do not you think the benefits may outweigh the risks?
Not a smart idea. If you broke (probably not going to happen honestly), and that's a big if, you could be in serious legal and criminal problems. You are taking a controlled substance w / o prescription, which are not certified to administer medications (especially prescription painkillers) patients, and you do not have sufficient justification for conducting controlled substances in you … in other words the reasons given to not stand in court. The benefits will only last from the time the person is injured the ski patrol time comes, probably not that long ago. It also presents problems for the rescuers in their assessment of the patient. The patient will not be able to detect pain normally, so get rid of donor care to determine where the injury occurred. Take the pills is a bad idea.
