Helix Burn Treatment Kit
Burn and radiation treatment kit; repairs thermal injuries and decontaminates radiation exposure.
The Burn Treatment Kit is a specialised response to the verse's most common non-ballistic injuries: thermal burns from energy weapons, plasma discharge, engine fires, and reactor leaks, plus the radiation exposure that often accompanies them. Each treatment unit contains a hydrogel dressing that actively draws heat from the burn site while promoting cell regeneration, a decontamination wash that binds radioactive particles and flushes them from the tissue, and a pain management patch that delivers targeted analgesia to the injury. The kit cannot treat third-degree burns over more than 20% of the body surface (that requires an autodoc and skin grafting), but it handles the first and second-degree burns that make up the majority of field burn injuries. Helix designed the kit for Legion engineering crews and void-fighting personnel; on the Rim, it is standard equipment for anyone working near reactors, engines, or energy weapons.

Notes
Capacity: four treatment units: hydrogel burn dressings (heat-drawing), radiation decontamination wash, cell-regeneration topical, pain management patch
Effect: Treats one 'burned' condition per use (DC 10 Medicine check). Heals 1d8 HP from burn damage. Reduces radiation exposure by one level (from 'exposed' to 'clear', or from 'contaminated' to 'exposed'). Can treat plasma burns, beam scorching, and chemical burns. Each use consumes one hydrogel dressing and one decontamination wash.
