Product Feature: Meret Oxygen Cylinders


The Meret Oxygen Cylinders are a great choice for EMS providers because they're the perfect size! Not only that, but with the hand tight "z-valve", no oxygen key is needed.

These are a great choice for anyone needing a portable system for oxygen but still needing a significant amount of oxygen supply. We have available the D, the JD (Jumbo D), and E size cylinders which can supply oxygen to a variety of sources.

It's important for EMS providers to have access to oxygen cylinders since they're used in everyday treatment of the sick and injured. The D and Jumbo D cylinders will fit into the Omni Pro, Recover Pro, or the Go Pro 02 Reponse bags.


The "Z" Valve (shown above) provides a great hand tight on/off valve which requires no extra equipment to operate. No need to have that clunky key hanging off the side of the bottle, anymore. Since the "Z" valve incorporates an o-ring seal design technology, it requires less torque than standard US and foreign manufactured valves. Each of which are 100% leak tested to full service pressure.

Features & Details
  • All cylinders come standard with a "Z" valve (a hand tight valve), Toggle valve, or standard Post valve
  • Lightweight aluminum construction
  • D cylinder - 425 liters capacity; 20”H x 14”circumference
  • JD cylinder - 623 liters capacity; 20”H x 16.5” circumference

Product Feature: Mettag, Medical Emergency Triage Tag

The Mettag Medical Emergency Triage Tags are the standard identifying tag used in trauma triage by Fire Departments, EMS & Military for mass casualty incidents. The tags are used to perform a prompt and accurate assessment of a patients needs and injuries, then identify them properly, so that correct medical attention can be given to them.

The tags are absolutely imperative in a MCI (mass casualty incident) so that there is a reliable method of assessing victims and assigning them with an appropriate triage or priority status based on the severity of injuries.

The MT-137 Triage Tag has been tested and proven over 30 years time. It's made of a damage resistant material, allowing use in the harshest and most demanding field situations. Each tag is equipped with an elastic band that can attach to the victim's body, around their neck, or an available limb.

Each tag is equipped with it's own barcode serial number, which aids in identification and tracking of the wounded and their belongings.

The use of standard graphic symbols on the tags and a four-color tear-off triaging system makes this a universal tool, with no language or literacy barriers, and can be used with minimal training experience.

If your department or agency is looking for a truly effective way to respond to a mass casualty incident, or for training exercises, then the Mettag Medical Emergency Triage Tag is the one for you.

Hartwell Medical Biohoop Emesis Biohazard Bag

Let's be honest, talking barf bags isn't exactly the most exciting thing ever, but in this line of work--it just has to be done. Emesis bags are important, and making sure there are waste containment options isn't something to be taken lightly.

The BioHoop Emesis bag is a versatile, leak-proof bag that will solve all your waste containment needs and more. With it's semi-rigid rim helping to keep the bag open, it provides a large target for the patient. It can stay open and be ready for immediate use. It's 8"x13" size prevents spillage and allows for larger biohazard waste as well as evidence from accident scenes. Not to mention a perfect size for a patent's personal belongings like cell phones, wallet, watches and glasses.

The instant closure of the BioHoop bag is great, with just a pull of the strap to cinch up tight, making it a leakproof container that won't spill in transport.

The design also provides a protective perimeter cuff to protect your hands from bodily fluids or contaminants. The clear front of the bag makes it easy to examine the contents of the bag, so you know exactly what you're dealing with, but the opaque back allows you to turn it so contents won't be visible if desired. The front of the bag even has a volume indicator, which gives you a good at-a-glance reading.

The bag is easy to hang with it's hook to stretcher rails, hospital beds, wheelchairs, turnout gear pockets, etc. Or use the clip to attach to a patient & keep all personal belongings with them.
