Lightweight First Aid Kits for Hiking
EMAIL THIS PRINT THIS BY Bill Thorneloe Introduction First, I want the reader to understand that these are only my suggestions. This article is not a substitute for advice from your own physician or other recognized authorities in first aid and wilderness medicine. Advice from this article should be compared to other resources and reviewed along with specific information about medical history and the planned activity. Hiking is an excellent sport and exercise, whether for a short day hike, a longer walk for a few days or a week, or a long distance trek for several months. As with any sport, preparation and training help to make the endeavor fun and safe. As with any sport, injuries, accidents and illnesses will occur. In general, a first aid kit should be part of your survival gear and always available for hikes. It is a good idea to keep a kit for all general activities as well as one that is targeted to specific endeavors. For instance, you don't need the same gear for water skiing as you might carry for a spring walk in the Smokies. However, there are several basic items that you will want to have, at least on your person. You can compare this to how you carry your driver's license while driving to the corner store, carry a Voter's Registration card when voting, carry a Passport when traveling to Paris, and carry a driver's license, Social Security card and proof of citizenship to a new job.

    Head injury
    Overview Symptoms Treatment Prevention Definition:
    A head injury is any trauma that leads to injury of the scalp, skull, or brain. These injuries can range from a minor bump on the skull to a devastating brain injury. Head injury can be classified as either closed or penetrating. In a closed head injury, the head sustains a blunt force by striking against an object. A concussion is a type of closed head injury that involves the brain. In a penetrating head injury, an object breaks through the skull and enters the brain. (This object is usually moving at a high speed.)
    Alternative Names: Concussion - first aid; Brain injury; Head trauma
    Considerations: Injuries to the head are so common that almost everyone will sustain some form of trauma to the head at some point during their lifetime. Learning to recognize serious head injury, and implementing basic first aid, can make the difference in saving someone's life. Medical advances in detecting and treating these injuries, however, have improved the outlook for many of these injuries. Every year, approximately two million people sustain a head injury. Most of these injuries are minor because the skull provides the brain with considerable protection thus symptoms of minor head injuries usually resolve with time. However, more than half a million head injuries a year are severe enough to require hospitalization.

    A health and safety program is a definite plan of action designed to prevent accidents and occupational diseases. Some form of a program is required under occupational health and safety legislation in most Canadian jurisdictions. A health and safety program must include the elements required by the health and safety legislation as a minimum. Because organizations differ, a program developed for one organization cannot necessarily be expected to meet the needs of another. This document summarizes the general elements of a health and safety program. This should help smaller organizations to develop programs to deal with their specific needs. Because many small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) lack the resources of larger organizations, it is even more vital that SMEs involve all employees in health and safety activities. The more comprehensive the program is, the more employee involvement can be expected. What is a policy statement?

    A head injury is any trauma that leads to injury of the scalp, skull, or brain. These injuries can range from a minor bump on the skull to a devastating brain injury. Head injury can be classified as either closed or penetrating. In a closed head injury, the head sustains a blunt force by striking against an object. A concussion is a type of closed head injury that involves the brain. In a penetrating head injury, an object breaks through the skull and enters the brain. (This object is usually moving at a high speed like a windshield or another part of a motor vehicle.)
    Alternative Names
    Concussion - first aid; Brain injury; Head trauma
    Considerations
    Every year, approximately two million people sustain a head injury. Most of these injuries are minor because the skull provides the brain with considerable protection. The symptoms of minor head injuries usually go away on their own. More than half a million head injuries a year, however, are severe enough to require hospitalization. Learning to recognize a serious head injury, and implementing basic first aid, can make the difference in saving someone's life.
