[Emergency equipment for the physician].
In case of an emergency it is the moral and legal obligation of every physician render first aid. For immediate and effective prehospital treatment a certain minimum of medical equipment should be available. In this article, drugs and essential technical equipment of a doctor's first aid kit are recommended which has proved useful in the management of respiratory and cardiovascular emergencies. Monitoring of vital functions as well as the emergency treatment itself require technical equipment. The proposed essential equipment allows every first-aid doctor--beyond simple measures of basic life support--to reverse life--threatening derangements of vital organ systems and to save time before definite treatment in the hospital.
