Any info would be appreciated.

If you are referring to paralytics the answer is no we don't generally carry them.
NPA's, safety pins, cric kits, and laryngoscope with tubes are carried in various configurations given the bag, the missions and the support available. How they are utilized and when in the continuum of care depends on the situation at hand.
HTH,
