management of penetrating thoracic injuries in the battlefield.
2.With the unvented CS, the intrapleural pressure progressively
increased to positive levels with smaller differences between
inspiration and expiration .
The Vented Chest Seal provides users with a vented chest seal in a
compact packaging for the treatment of penetrating injuries to the
chest. Designed with 3 vented channels that allow air to escape the
chest cavity during exhalation but prevents airflow from entering
through the injury site during inhalation.
