You'll generally find these objects in medbay, used by the medical staff. Some of them aren't, however!

Medkits

In complete inverse of the example shown by toolboxes, medical kits are entirely harmless as blunt instruments. Don't even bother.

Item Image Contents Description
Medkit
MedkW.png
2x Healing Patches, 2x Burn Patches, 1x Epinephrine Syringe, 1x Painkiller pill, Health Analyzer Basic all-purpose cure pack. Something for the burns, something for the cuts, shock relief and some aspirin.
Fire Medkit
MedkO.png
4x Burn Patches, 1x Epinephrine Syringe, 1x Painkiller pill, Health Analyzer Like above, but switches out the styptic patches for even more silver sulfadiazine.
Toxin Medkit
MedkG.png
3x Charcoal Syringes, 3x Charcoal Pills, Health Analyzer Contains nothing but active charcoal to cure TOX damage from poisons, exposure to plasma and other biohazards.
Oxygen Medkit
MedkB.png
4x Salbutamol Pills, Health Analyzer Found mainly in O2 emergency cabinets. These pills dilate the air ways to heal OXY damage of people knocked out by a depressurization event, victims of strangulation or certain poisons. They are also useful to counter the suffocation that ramps up when somebody is in critical condition.
Neurological Medkit
MedkitR.png
4x Mannitol Pills, Health Analyzer Specific to the genetics department, the mannitol pills are meant to relieve clone cranial swelling syndrome, but will help against any kind of brain damage.

Drug Application

Item Image Description
Patch
Patch.png GenericPatch.png
Found in most medkits. Empty patches, available in medbay or from the general manufacturer, can be injected with any mix of medicine or dangerous toxins.
Hypospray
Hypo.png
Injects chemicals instantly. Holds up to 30 units and can be adjusted to dispense varying amounts of its contents. It will reject harmful chemicals unless emagged.
Syringe
Syringe.png
The syringe can be set to inject or draw and moves 5 units of chemicals at a time. Drawing from a person will take a blood sample. Neither are instant, unless the recipient is yourself. Total capacity is 15 units.
Dropper
Dropper.png
Holds up to 5 units of chemicals, and drops all of it at once onto its target. Dropping takes about half as much time as injecting with a syringe.
Beaker
Beaker.png
Holds up to 50 units of chemicals. Standard equipment for chemistry, but medbay has some as well.
Medicine Bottle
Bott1.pngFile:Bott3.png
Essentially a smaller version of the beaker with a reduced capacity of 30 units. They usually come pre-loaded with medicine and are stored in the medbay lockers and vending machine.
Pill
Pill1.pngPill2.pngPill3.png
Pills are meant to be taken orally, but can also be dissolved in a beaker for smaller doses. This can be useful, as they hold large amounts of chemicals - 50 units in most cases and up to 120 if a scientist has gotten their hands on a large enough container. It's often not desirable or practical to administer a whole pill of calomel for example.
Bruise Pack
Bruisepack.png
Outdated, but forgotten stashes still float around in deep space. Heals brute damage. You must target the damaged part of the player's body.
Ointment

As above, but for burns.

Tools

Item Image Description
Health Analyzer
Medical Scanner.pngMedPDA.png
Scan humans or monkeys to get a report of their health, damage taken, any viruses, and other ailments. The medical PDA provides the same functionality, along with the ability to switch to reagent scanner mode to see what chemicals are inside things.
ProDoc Health Goggles
Healthgogles.png
These goggles allow you to assess the health of everyone in sight. Useful to identify and prioritize severely injured patients at a glance. This is the starter upgrade for medical cyborgs.
Medical Belt
Medbelt.png
Basically a medkit that you wear around your waist, this belt can hold all kinds of medical drugs and a variety of medical tools, such as syringes and hyposprays. There are in limited supply and thus high demand.
Medical Headset
Headset.png
Stay in touch and coordinate with your colleagues. Type say :h (resp. :m if you are the MD) to access the medical channel.
Defibrillator
Defibrillator.png
The defibrillator is one option to treat cardiac arrest. Two are located in medbay: one in the MD's office and another in the surgery room. More cannot be acquired without the help of electronics, though medical cyborgs come with these standard.
Scalpel
Scalpel.png
Part of the surgery procedure. Depending on the body part you are aiming at, it will remove implants, bullets, limbs, butts or brains. More can be made in a robotics fabricator.
Circular Saw
CircSaw.png
Another essential tool for surgery. Also available from the fabricator.
Staple Gun
StapleGun.png
Reattach limbs! Put the patient on an operating table, attach their arm to the stump by aiming at it and secure it with the staple gun, causing a minor amount of brute damage. More can be made in a robotics fabricator, just like scalpels and saws.
Port-a-Medbay Remote
RemoteNew.png
Use it once to summon the Port-a-Medbay. Stuff the injured patient inside, then use it again to teleport them to medbay.
Anesthetic Supplies
Anesthetic.pngMedicalmask.png
Found in the anesthetic locker in medbay, these tanks contain N2O. In theory, they are intended to be strapped to patients before an operation to ease the pain. In practice, they are hardly ever used by anybody, because surgery is so fast that there is usually no point in going through the routine of taking out the tank and mask, putting them on the patient, turning said patient's internals on and waiting for them to fall asleep. If you have the time to do that as a traitor, chances are your victim was already unconscious in the first place.
DNA Injector
Dnainjector.png
Geneticists will occasionally use these as part of their research to inject people with superpowers or (more likely) horrible disabilities.

Miscellaneous

Item Image Description
Prescription Glasses
Glasses.png
Simple pair of glasses to correct nearsightedness. Rarely requested by patients, but may come in handy after a radiation storm or cloning accident.
VISOR
Visors.png
If someone has been permanently blinded, the VISOR is an option to restore their eyesight in a somewhat grainy fashion. Obviously inspired by the namesake on Star Trek TNG.
Auditory Headset
Auditoryheadset.png
A sophisticated hearing aid that also functions like a regular headset. It's a good idea to ask the roboticist to manufacture one or two copies in advance, since deafness is a surprisingly common condition.
Straight Jacket
Straightjacket.png
Originally intended to be used on crazy people, the straight jacket is almost exclusively used by cyborgs for their "fancy parties". In the rare case that the jacket is used on a human, said human will be under affects similar to being handcuffed, I.E: They cannot open doors by clicking on them, they cannot escape on their own from being pulled by someone, and they cannot take off or add items to themselves or others. The straight jacket however, has two large differences from hand cuffs, the first being that it slows the wearer to walking speed, and the second being that it cannot be removed by the wearer. Period. Two jackets can be found on station: One in medbay, and another in the armory.
Muzzle
Muzzle.png
When applied to someone, they cannot properly speak, as anything said by them will come out as muffled grunts. Useful for people who wont shut up. One can be found in medbay next to a straight jacket.

Machinery

Item Image Description
Cryo Chamber
Cryo.png
The cryo chamber heals critically injured patients fairly reliably, provided the temperature of the gas circulating in the system is well below 150 K and the unit is loaded with a beaker of cryoxadone, two of which medbay starts with. Remember to remove the patient's exosuit (space suit, lab coats, armour, etc.) and headgear (hat, mask) beforehand, as they will likely interfere with the cooling process! Keep the chamber offline when not needed. For more info, refer to Using the Cryo Chambers.
Freezer
File:Freezer.png
Cools incoming gas from a connected O2 canister. The temperature can be adjusted and doctors want to set it as low as possible.
Sleeper
File:Sleeper.pngFile:SleeperConsole.png
These are essentially safe storage units for living people - anyone inside will be shielded from most outside dangers and provided with a stable oxygen supply. The console (if any) will show you a summary of the occupant's health or optionally allow the injection of saline to speed up paralysis recovery and keep them alive while you are preparing damage-specific medicine.
Medical Dispenser
MedDispenser.png
The dispenser works like a normal vending machine and is accessible by anyone with medbay clearance. Offers a wide selection of basic medicine and other supplies.
Genetic Scanner
File:Genescan-off.gif File:Genescan-on.gif
Found in genetics. One is attached to the cloning device, another to the DNA manipulator. The former is for corpses, the latter is for test subjects. The cloning scanner cannot scan husks, people who have logged out or bodies that have decayed. An upgrade module to remove these restrictions can be acquired somewhere in space. Remember: failure to scan doesn't necessarily mean that the owner of said body is really braindead, so try to avoid the common mistake of outright flushing every corpse down disposals. Take the body to robotics and ask the people there to put the brain in a cyborg frame. When the cyborg is activated and its name is simply "Cyborg", then it is officially braindead and you may remove its brain so as not to waste the frame.
Cloning Pod
ClonePod.png
This is a small, computer-controlled pod is used to grow living clones of dead people. A steady supply of biomass is required for this process. Click on the pod to see how much biomass it currently has stored, and to see what percent the current cloning process is at.
Enzymatic Reclaimer
Reclaimer.png
This is where the biomass comes from. Accepts humans, monkeys or slabs of meat. A sure-fire way of making sure people don't get revived later!
Operating Table
OpTable.png
A table used to perform surgery on dead or living subjects. There are two in medbay, one in robotics and one in the morgue - see Roboticist or Doctoring for more information.
Port-a-Medbay
Portomedbay.png
A special sleeper with a built-in teleporter. Used to safely transfer critically-wounded patients to medbay for further treatment.
Morgue Unit
Morgue.png
Used to store corpses for autopsies. Extend the tray, wrestle a stiff on it and slide it back in. The body won't rot so long as it's inside.
Medical Computer
Medicomp.gif
This ThinkDOS-based workstation runs MedTrak and provides access to all medical records as well as the virus database.
