BAC-Pack - Bougie Aided Cricothyroidotomy Pack

Rapid Surgical Airway When Seconds Matter

The BAC-Pack was developed for clinicians and tactical medics who require a fast, reliable surgical airway solution in austere conditions. This compact pack supports a bougie aided open surgical technique that simplifies tube placement, reducing procedure time and cognitive load during high stress events. Designed to be used by military medics, EMS personnel, flight crews, and law enforcement tactical medics, the BAC-Pack addresses the critical problem of securing an airway when standard intubation is not feasible. The organized layout, with components arranged by order of use, helps providers maintain focus and speed while performing a life saving cricothyroidotomy in difficult environments.

Purpose Built Tube and Intuitive Layout

At the core of the BAC-Pack is a purpose built tube that comes with a pre inserted bougie, enabling rapid, controlled placement during the surgical airway procedure. The bougie is fully adjustable to adapt to patient needs, and excess length stores neatly using the included bougie cap and stopper. Components are held in elastic loops and organized in sequence to mirror the steps of the procedure, reducing search time. The tube design meets TCCC recommendations for bougie aided open surgical technique, providing compatibility with current tactical casualty care protocols and enhancing confidence during high acuity interventions.

Durable Construction for Harsh Conditions

The BAC-Pack is housed in a compact pouch fabricated from rugged 500D nylon, engineered to resist abrasion and daily wear in operational settings. Elastic retention loops keep all items organized and secured in the order of use, while a unique bougie cap protects and stores excess bougie length when not deployed. The pack is lightweight and compact, packaged at 8 inches by 4 inches by 1.75 inches, and weighs just over five ounces, so it integrates easily into IFAKs, chest rigs, or vehicle kits. The construction emphasizes longevity and reliability, ensuring the system is ready when crews arrive on scene.

Versatile for Multiple Operational Roles

This cricothyroidotomy pack is suitable across a broad spectrum of clinical and tactical applications. It supports austere environment care, point of injury interventions, and pre hospital procedures where rapid airway access is life saving. The organized pouch format allows easy placement in aviation kits, ambulance stores, or tactical medical rigs, and the lightweight footprint makes it practical for patrol medics and forward resuscitation teams. Whether used in confined spaces, under fire, or during prolonged field care, the BAC-Pack provides a consistent, protocol friendly approach to the surgical airway.
