PRODUCT INFORMATION

North American Rescue · Expeditionary Individual Kit

Expeditionary First Aid Kit (EFAK)

A military-spec individual kit built to the dual-tourniquet standard: one C-A-T® inside the pouch and a second in an externally MOLLE-mounted holder on the kit exterior. The Advanced loadout adds hemostatic gauze, a vented chest seal, a 28 Fr NPA and an ARS® decompression needle on the half-size M-FAK footprint — 6 x 3 x 3 in., 1 lb 3 oz. Black or Coyote Tan.

Doctrine says a primary and a secondary tourniquet. This kit meets that on its own, without a second pouch on the belt.

MARCH = Massive hemorrhage, Airway, Respiration, Circulation, Hypothermia/Head injury. This loadout covers hemorrhage, airway and respiration; it carries no hypothermia component.

▾Who Carries It

Expeditionary and light infantry as the individual carry kit where resupply is limited and weight is a design constraint · SOF and airborne units that count every ounce · Vehicle crews mounting in a compartment or on MOLLE without a full medic bag · Wilderness and maritime teams using the EFAK as the individual medical element in a layered kit architecture.

The nasopharyngeal airway and the ARS® decompression needle are provider-scope items — their inclusion assumes appropriate training and scope-of-practice authorization. For team- or medic-level casualty management, the Expeditionary Casualty Response Kit (ECRK) and the NAR-4 Aid Bag sit above this kit in the same architecture.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Does the EFAK contain CoTCCC-recommended items?

Yes. The Expeditionary First Aid Kit includes CoTCCC-recommended items for individual casualty care — C-A-T® tourniquet and hemostatic dressings form the hemorrhage control foundation. Full contents are published by North American Rescue and align with current CoTCCC Individual First Aid Kit (IFAK) recommendations.

What is the difference between the EFAK and a standard IFAK?

The EFAK's Expeditionary designation reflects optimization for operations with limited resupply — weight and cube efficiency are primary design considerations alongside clinical capability. Standard IFAKs may use larger pouches; the EFAK prioritizes the smallest possible footprint that still meets CoTCCC individual first-aid requirements.

Is the EFAK suitable for civilian outdoor use?

Yes. The EFAK's compact, durable design makes it appropriate for wilderness first responders, backcountry hikers, and outdoor guides who need individual trauma capability without the bulk of a full aid bag. Contents address the most likely life-threatening trauma in remote settings: hemorrhage and penetrating trauma.

Does the EFAK have an NSN for military procurement?

Individual EFAK components carry NSNs through DLA. The complete EFAK assembly NSN should be confirmed with North American Rescue. Contact MED-TAC International for unit-volume procurement support and current NSN data.

How does the EFAK pouch attach to plate carriers and load-bearing equipment?

The EFAK uses MOLLE/PALS-compatible attachment — threading through standard webbing found on plate carriers, battle belts, and assault packs. Confirm the specific mounting hardware in the current production specification from North American Rescue before integration into unit kit configurations.
