kit explosion

A chaotic spread of opened and unopened kit. The ultimate result of an inexperienced and/or poorly disciplined healthcare practitioner dealing with a patient. Explosive effects are amplified if practitioners’ intrinsic adrenaline levels are high. Following a kit explosion, one may find it difficult to find a specific piece of kit and/or have an unnecessarily large amount of kit checks to complete. Wherever possible, therefore, kit explosions should be avoided.
