A medpac (also spelled med-pack or medi-pack[2][3]) was a small first aid kit that contained limited-utility diagnosis equipment and other essential medicines for the treatment of wounds. Medpacs could also be called health packs.[4]
Characteristics
A medpack usually contained diagnostics such as medisensors and also could provide flexclamps,[2] synthflesh,[2][3] irrigation bulbs,[2][3] bacta, kolto, spray-bandages, bacta patches, spray hypos, bone stabilizers, antiseptics, medical drugs, coagulants,[1] stimulants such as stim-shots, and other essential medicines for the treatment of wounds.
Usage
They were standard-issue for Imperial stormtroopers and were the standard method of treating minor injuries or providing crisis care in the civilized portions of the galaxy.
Variants
A medkit was a bulkier variant used aboard starships.
During the era of the Old Republic advanced medpacs were also frequently available. These kits contained a more extensive array of equipment, than the standard medpac, for the treatment of serious wounds. Furthermore, in rare instances, a life support pack was obtainable at some of the more exclusive traders. This item contained highly advanced dermal regenerators and other necessary medical equipment for the treatment of life-threatening wounds.
