(kit IEHK 2018) PACKING LIST COMPLETE KIT English/French

Definition

Complete list of articles included in the Interagency Emergency Health Kit.

The full IEHK contains medicines and medical devices for 10 000 people for approximately three months.

The IEHK 2017 is designed principally to meet the priority health needs of a population affected by emergencies, who have limited access to routine health care services. The kit is designed primarily for “life-saving” purposes, not for health conditions requiring continued care. Given its use in emergency situations, the IEHK fills immediate medical gaps; it does not aim to replace existing medical supply chain mechanisms.

The kit contains essential drugs, supplies and equipment to be used for a limited period of time and target a defined number of people. Some of the medicines and medical devices contained in the kit may not be appropriate for all cultures and countries, or every kind of emergency. This is inevitable as it is a standardized emergency kit, designed for worldwide use, which is pre‐packed and kept ready for immediate dispatch.

Specifications

The IEHK comprises two modules, basic and supplementary.

  • The basic module is to cover the primary health care needs of a catchment population of 1000 people. It contains oral and topical medicines, medical devices and a malaria unit with oral antimalarial medicines and rapid diagnostic tests. The basic malaria unit can be removed on request. One full IEHK contains 10 basic modules.
  • The supplementary module is to cover the primary health care needs and basic hospital care needs of a target population of 10 000 people, when used together with 10 basic modules (total 10 basic modules and 1 supplementary module). It contains medicines and medical devices as well as a malaria unit for treatment of severe malaria and a PEP unit. The supplementary malaria unit and the PEP unit are included unless there is a specific request not to include them.

Some of the items in the supplementary module might be withdrawn by implementing agencies according to their own protocols and complementarity with other kits.
