Utilized as standard rapid management in emergency situations for
the U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force, the Asherman Chest Seal is proven
more effective then standard petroleum gauze and the one item every
responder needs for the treatment of open chest injuries (open
pneumothorax or "sucking chest wound"). Designed for use on open chest
or other injuries that could compromise the pleural space of the chest
cavity, the Asherman Chest Seal's unique circular design and one-way
valve let air and blood escape while preventing re-entry and
automatically vents chest wounds.
