The Pneumothorax Decompression Needle is a vital medical tool designed for emergency situations where immediate treatment is required to relieve a tension pneumothorax. This life-saving device features a strong and reliable needle/catheter that can penetrate through the chest wall, allowing trapped air to escape the pleural space and restore normal breathing.
The needle/catheter is enclosed in a rugged protective tube that ensures it stays intact and sterile until it is needed. The tube also features a textured twist top with a handy clip that provides a secure grip and easy handling, even when wearing gloves or in low-light conditions.
The Pneumothorax Decompression Needle comes in an easy-open container that provides quick access to the needle in emergency situations. The capless flash chamber allows for immediate confirmation of needle placement, which is crucial in ensuring that the needle is inserted in the correct location.
This device is certified CE and ISO 13485, ensuring that it meets the highest standards for quality and safety. With a size of 14g x 3.25″, this needle is a must-have in a military IFAK (Individual First Aid Kit), where quick and effective treatment of a tension pneumothorax can mean the difference between life and death.
