The Russell Chest Seal® is a non-occlusive, vented chest seal, designed to cover a penetrating chest wound. The Russell Chest Seal® has a low-profile valve mechanism, constructed from a thin yet tough material, which is unique in ensuring that trapped air can escape the pleural cavity, without being drawn back into the wound again. Using this expertly designed chest seal helps to minimise the chances of lung collapse, whilst simultaneously encouraging lung re-inflation. Made using highly adhesive and strong hydrogel, the Russell Chest Seal® is strong, long-lasting, and can adhere to all skin types for long lasting durations. Yet, although highly adhesive, this chest seal remains extremely flexible, and able to be moulded to various shapes of a patients body.
Fast, easy and intuitive to apply.
Patented hydrogel base allows the chest seal to adhere to blood, sweat and hair.
4 large peripheral apertures allow drainage of air and blood.
Large central hole in base material allows quick accurate placement with reduced risk of obstructing the wound opening
Low profile and highly flexible, meaning the chest seal can adhere to contours of patients body.
Compact: easy to pack into medical kit
