First Aid kit talks to users

Oncology Nursing Forum, May, 2008 by Valerie Burger

The Intelligent First Aid[TM] (DLH, Inc.) talking kit is a revolutionary first aid tool that includes individually labeled, color-coded injury packs that supply the user with easy-to-follow instructions for managing a specific injury. The audio module in each injury pack delivers step-by-step instructions, pausing and repeating when necessary to provide guidance. Each kit includes nine injury-specific packs: breathing, bleeding, shock, head and spine, bone, eye, burns, bites and stings, and basics, and comes complete with easy-to-follow, color-coded instruction cards and supplies. Intelligent First Aid kits also allow companies to meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards for providing on-site care in the workplace.
