medical bag
Physician's portable supplies
A medical bag is a portable case containing supplies and instruments for treating patients, typically carried by doctors making house calls or by emergency responders.
The classic physician's bag—black leather with a hinged opening—became iconic of the profession: The doctor arrived with his medical bag.
Modern versions range from basic first-aid kits to specialized trauma bags.
