First responder emergency situation assistance device
First Claim
1. An instructional medical supply device adapted to provide instructions to a user for carrying out a plurality of medical emergency related tasks when a user activates the instructions associated with one or more of the tasks, said medical supply device comprising:
- a case having an open position and a closed position;
a plurality of bags carried by the case when the case is in the closed position, each bag containing supplies adapted for addressing at least one of said plurality of medical tasks;
a console combined with the case, the console having a plurality of task selection keys, each task selection key relating to at least one of said plurality of medical tasks;
circuitry and software in communication with the console, said circuitry and software adapted to store and communicate the instructions to the user;
a speaker in communication with the circuitry, said speaker adapted to audibly output the instructions for at least one of said tasks;
a power supply in communication with the circuitry for powering the device;
wherein the device has a power-off state and a power-on state and removal of one of the bags from the case causes the device to be in the power-on state; and
wherein when in a power-on state the circuitry and the software of the device are adapted to prioritize the traumas selected by the user in accordance with standard medical procedures and provide the user with instructions as to the selected tasks in the proper order regardless of the order in which the user selected the tasks.

Abstract
The present invention is a first aid emergency supply kit capable of providing audio and/or video instructions to the user as to how to use the medical supplies contained in the kit. The case is organized so that the medical supplies for different traumas are packaged into individual bags. The user can activate the audio and/or video instructions by pushing a button on the unit'"'"'s console that corresponds to the particular trauma. Alternatively, the instructions can be activated by removing a bag from the case which automatically begins the instructions. If a victim has sustained multiple injuries, and the user has depressed multiple buttons or removed multiple bags, then the device automatically prioritizes the traumas and provides instructions on the multiple traumas in the proper order.

10. An instructional medical supply device adapted to provide instructions to a user for carrying out a plurality of medical emergency related tasks, said medical supply kit comprising:
-
a case having an open position and a closed position; a plurality of bags combined with the case, each bag containing supplies adapted for addressing at least one of said plurality of medical tasks; circuitry and software adapted to store and play the instructions; a speaker in communication with the circuitry, said speaker adapted to audibly output instructional data concerning at least one of said tasks; a power supply in communication with the circuitry for powering the device; wherein the device has a power-off state and a power-on state in which the device begins giving instructions to the user, and removal of one of the bags from the case causes the device to be in the power-on state without the operation of a dedicated power switch. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. An instructional medical supply device configured to provide medical condition specific instructions to a user for carrying out a plurality of medical emergency related tasks when a user activates instructions associated with one or more of a plurality of predefined medical conditions, said medical supply device comprising:
-
a case having an open position and a closed position; said case comprising a roll-out portion having detachably disposed thereon a plurality of bags, each bag containing supplies preselected for addressing and a label for describing one of said plurality of predefined medical conditions; said plurality of bags each being magnetically coupled to a portion of the case such that when any of said plurality of bags is detached from said case, an electronic signal is provided to circuitry and software coupled with the console so as to enable identification of which bag has been detached and which predefined medical condition is associated with any such detached bag; a console disposed within the case, the console having a plurality of selection keys, each selection key relating to at least one of said plurality of predefined medical conditions; circuitry and software coupled with the console, said circuitry and software configured to store and play the medical condition specific instructions; a speaker in communication with the circuitry, said speaker configured to audibly output the instructions for at least one of said tasks; and a power supply coupled with the circuitry for powering the device; said circuitry and software further configured to prioritize medical condition specific instructions if more than one bag of said plurality of bags is detached from the case, where prioritization of medical condition specific instructions is done in accordance with predetermined standard medical procedures; and a power-on state of said device is automatically accomplished when a first of said plurality of bags is detached from the case.
