Tech Level 6 - 10, depending on type of kit (professional or emergancy, Civilian or Military)
Mounds of Clean (preferably Sterile) cloth (usually white) Including gauze pads/sponges, Rolls of guaze or cling wrap, Triangular Bandages and Ring Pads (if St. John's trained).
Military personel often carry 'Trauma pads' or 'Battle Dressings' (A sterile guaze sponge with two long gauze sashes for fastening. All in a sealed olive drab package)
Scissors, Shears, Tweazers, Kelly Clamps, Usually surgical steel and sterile.
C-Spine imobilisation Collars in a variety of sizes, Splints and splinting materials of various types (EG 'QuickSplint'(tm) padded, flexible aluminum roll, or 'SpeedSplint, folded, corrigated plastic).
Blood Pressure Cuff (Sphygomanometer) and Stethoscope.
Airway Management devices: Oral Pharangeal arways. (plastic tubes shoved through mouth and down throat), Nasal Pharangeal airways (latex and plastic tubes shoved through nose down throat) Oxygen Masks, Nasal prongs, Tubing and bottled oxygen.
Diagnostic devices: Pulse Oximeters, Blood Glucose Monitors, Cardiac Monitor/Defibrilators
Proffessional kits may contain drugs. (Epinephrine/Adreneline, Nitroglycerine, Military personel in NBC situations will have Injection pens with Atropine)
Ambulance Personel, also have a whole Air/Raft load's worth of Stretcheers, Femur fracture traction devices, Anti-Shock pressure suits, Burn kits, Obstetric Kits, Symptom relief and allergy kits. IV tubing etc.
In the future?
Condensed and more sophisticated diagnostic devices. portable ultrasound X-ray, Computerised Tomography.
Improved dressings/drugs, Synthetic skin sprays, Medical Slow, Low Berths. Nanotech?
hope this helps. If you want to know more...I can elaborate.

by TL15 I imaging you might even have a portable device able to do the full inside body imaging that we see briefly in the movie "Lost in Space"... so you can see on the outside all of what is inside.. might be useful.
of course what is really cool is they are just now apparently starting to develop these things for real.

At tech 13+ many things that are just ideas are possible.
Any sort of portable imaging system would be EXTREMELY useful.
IF you can SEE which bones are broken, which nerves severed which blood vessels torn...If you can locate that severed artery BEFORE you go in to grab it and clamp it....If better yet you can guide a small clamp down an existing entry way to the problem area...
Surgery with tiny tools, minipulators and camera's
all inserted via tubes through tiny incisions is common now. Endoscopic surgry allows ... a gall bladder for example to be removed leaving only four little sitched up holes on the belly and a bit of internal stitching unlike the surgery that preceded which could leave a 10 inch scar.

TJ's wonder serum Coffee Juice aside (Overboard with it!), there is also a lot of nanotechnology that will be available.
below is a link to DED's site (Sorry DED, shameless plug here fer ya!)
http://www.panpub.com/traveller/rules/nanotech.html
You might want to look at PLop 101, when ya have time.
http://www.panpub.com/traveller/rules/plasticsurgery.html
This one (same site) cover plastic surgery. As the above forum citizens have said, depends on TL available & the $$$ of the ship's owners (PCs or Patrons).
Thanx again!
(Btw TJ, selling CJ as "Vargr Hair Restorer" has had several folks spending time in the Extants, in prison. Might wanna get a liability clause on the label (or hire a good shyster!). The holoimage of you on the Wanted posters there, btw, is rather poor quality, which is why they haven't caught up with you yet.. watch yer back!)

What, no rattle snake venom in it? IF it smells like snake oil, tastes like snake oil, burns like snake oil, then it probably is.
Do you do a vaudville act with floor show while selling it?
I guess you gave a bottle of it to Rabid Vargr. That could explain why he is missing now.

Already have a gen-Bilge cleaner, its biotech and the geneered critter gets "all you can eat". Poor fella couldnae stomach CJ tho, so out the airlock it went! 'Sides, Th' Baroness (Our Patrone) woulda shot me if I hadn't.

Musta' swapped shipping labels, I'm sure you can explain it to IMOJ. Its not the lawsuits from vargr that'll bite ye
, its the Across the border non-tariffed pharmaceutical taxes!
Hope yer label printer doesn't go down. By my calculations,you have a week before they show up there.
Degreaser??? In a medical kit? My we digressed! Oops, sorry Plop101!

Staying on track, fer a minit...This does look like a good topic for "Most unusual use of medical equipment in a campaign", might it not?

i dont know if this could be called "Medical equipment" but i used a Vacc Suit as a Rapid Decompression chamber in the delivery of a litter of Vargr!!!! boy what a royal mess!!! Mom and all 6 are doing just fine!!!! woof woof!!

Speaking of Vargr in Vacc suits...Had a chance to unusually deploy the Medical side of one of my former Scout characters when some of those "corsairs" dropped by while fixin an engineering challenge on the No. 13 Boat (the one the Scout Service has to change the serial numbers on..words gettin out its a flyin crapper!)
Being a wee few meters away from the autoshotgun, He handily dispensed some anti-Burn coagulant foam (allows gaseous transfer, prevents infection, has mild anesthestic properties, TL-10+ available btw...)to their dog-face(d) plates as they stomped into the Med bay unannounced (He was tracking the umpteenth short running back towards the cockpit, and barely heard the airlock bein' forced). Problem with ABC foam...its sticky! THey gummed up their vision, smeared it about...long enough to do some rolling and sweeping the cabin clear, 18mm Slug-style. The last poor devil could see out the upper corner of his vis plate and headed for the air lock. Sent him off with a ABC foam glued on spare O2 tank. Let him reach his ship 30 meters away, and let the accelerator rifle rip. Pretty blue flash, as I recall. They never sent anyone else over...Smitty finally woke up from his hangover,and unlocked the cabin door and Franz crawled out of the Avionics crawlway. Bastids missed the whole thing!
Don't forget that ABC foam has mmore than one use! You can also smother small fires with it too when the extinguishers go on the blink!"
