BI Studios have done an amazing job with DayZ So far. The medical side of thing is in depth enough to be sophisticated but also easy to understand. What if we took it another step further?
Surgical Kits, they're in alot of mods on PC Already, but how do they work? It's easy to understand but, if you need one, it may already be too late.
The addition of Surgical Kits or Treatment would vastly change the Medical field in DayZ by doing one of Many things. First, what Applications would it be used in? Imagine you're in a Firefight, Someone Shoots you, there is a chance that bullet has not gone through you, but instead is stuck inside of you. How will you get it out, by using a Surgical Kit that should last anywhere from 10 to 15 seconds to remove the bullet, then to stop the bleeding with a bandage. There are other applications, such as Shrapnel from a grenade or maybe a vehicle explosion, Maybe a Knife wound cut too deep and knicked an artery, Use the Surgical Kit to remove any Fragments that may be under your skin and sew your tissue back. Be careful to not wait too long, the longer you wait for Surgery, The bigger the chance you risk for a Life Risking Infection. The difference from this infection and that of a Regular wound infection? This can lead to Gangrene, Which WILL Kill you unless you find very strong Antibiotics, That Tetracycline may come in handy, However, it will only work for so long if you still have a foreign object inside you. For an Arterial bleed, you do not risk Infection, You will simply just risk a Timely Demise from Internal Bleeding.
