[The physician's bag and emergency case. What should be in it?].

The contents of the doctor's bag will be determined by the doctor concerned and will depend on his medical training and specialization, on local conditions, the nature of his field of activity, and on the organization of medical emergency services. A selection of commonly employed preparations, classified by indication is proposed and discussed. In addition to the "drug collection", the essential "hardware" (syringes, stethoscope, etc.) and "software" (prescription forms, accounting forms, list of hospital telephone numbers, etc.) are also listed. The specific demands to be met by the contents of an emergency kit are discussed separately.
