Doctor's Bag or Briefcase?
The choice between a briefcase and a bag depends on the level of protection your medical equipment requires. While medical bags are commonly made of soft and flexible material, doctor's cases are equipped with a robust outer shell that protects their contents from damages. Fragile medical equipment and supplies that could be damaged by shocks or impacts should therefore better be transported in a briefcase. Bags, on the other hand, are characterised by their light weight, which makes them easy to carry over longer distances.
Helpful Accessories
Depending on which medical equipment is to be transported to the patient, the doctor's case or the doctor bag can be supplemented with suitable accessories for an individual medical kit for house calls and first aid. So-called ampoule holders for the safe transport of ampoules as well as instrument cases and expanding folders for documents are particularly frequently taken along to house calls. Ampoule holder, document folder and co. provide a good overview over the consumables and protect sensitive equipment, such as ampoules or documents, from damage.
Materials
The traditional doctor bag or case is made from leather. Smooth leather is robust, durable, low-maintenance and provides a refined look. Furthermore, leather has always been used as a material for making doctor's bags and briefcases. An example of a leather doctor bag in a classic design and made from brown leather is the M. Wright & Sons "Preston" doctor's bag.
Nevertheless, in addition to the traditional leather doctor bag, medical cases and bags can also be made of synthetic materials, such as polyester, nylon or polymousse. These materials are easy to clean and impervious to rain. At Praxisdienst, you will find synthetic bags like the Doctor's Bag for House Calls from Karl Bollmann, or the Dürasol Rusticana Light medical bag made of nylon with imitation leather trim, which is particularly hygienic and robust.
Lockable Bags and Cases
To ensure that no unauthorised person has access to the contents of the medical bag or case, it is advisable to choose a lockable model. If the bag contains medicines, it is particularly important that it can only be opened by the doctor and medical professionals.
