Again and again it happened in aviation that so-called fume events occurred.
A fume event is the inhalation (accidental inhalation) of aircraft cabin air that has been contaminated with highly heated substances such as engine oils, hydraulic oils, de-icing fluids or other potentially hazardous substances.
Since we are not always in the vicinity of a clinic or want to have our blood samples examined by an independent laboratory, this kit is now available.
- With the basic kit It is 3 urine tubes.
Packed in the size of a handbag and a short guide in the form of a QR code - With the Expert Kitit is a set for a complete set for a blood test. All important laboratory parameters can be recorded. Personally, such a kit would be very important to me in destinations with poor medical care. This kit includes the following items.
- puncture needle
- skin disinfectant wipes
- 3 x urine tubes
- 1 x EDTA tube (red)
- 1 x serum tube (brown, white or yellow)
- 1 x coagulation tube (green)
- 2 x Sterile Swabs
- 1 * Tourniquet
Blood should only be drawn by a doctor or healthcare professional.
