FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Surgical
Dressings Sectional Committee had been approved by the Medical Equipment and Hospital Planning Division
Council.
The first-aid kits specified in this standard are applicable for general use. Although, some industrial and commer-
cial first-aid requirements may be met by this ket but the kit is generally not applicable for providing specialized
first-aid treatment.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2 : 1960
‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off
value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
