Description
The Rüsch Asherman Chest Seal is a vital tool for managing open chest injuries, specifically in cases of open pneumothorax and tension pneumothorax resulting from gunshot wounds, stab wounds, or penetrating chest trauma. Its key features include a one-way valve, allowing air and blood to escape while preventing re-entry.
The transparent pad design ensures optimal wound visibility, and the 5.5-inch diameter dressing, along with a gauze pad, offers comprehensive wound coverage. The pressure-sensitive adhesive ensures a secure seal, even through body hair. With a substantial 5-year shelf life, this chest seal is a reliable choice for emergency medical situations.
