Description

Pneumothorax Emergency Air Release Is cathetered for use in the management of combat casualties who present with the signs and symptoms of a tension pneumothorax. The device features a sharp needle point, reducing the amount of force required to Insert the needle. The one-way valve can be removed from the needle and either reapplied to the catheter. Upon removal of the needle, the remaining catheter is a flexible, kink-resistant material with a soft tip to lessen the impact on possible tissue contact. The needle and catheter are protected from bending or damage and harsh environmental conditions while in your kit by a hard plastic case.
