SAM® Chest Seal 2.0: Advanced Treatment for Open Chest Wounds

The SAM® Chest Seal 2.0 is designed to treat open chest wounds by creating a dependable seal that can be sealed and resealed in demanding conditions. It is built for swift, straightforward application and is engineered to adhere firmly in extreme temperatures and challenging environments.

Its TRUFLOW™ Valve is a dome-shaped, one-way valve that allows airflow from the chest cavity while helping to minimise internal blockage from elements such as blood clots or soft tissue. The transparent, elastic dressing conforms over the wound and uses a strong Hydrogel adhesive designed to maintain adhesion in the presence of blood, sweat, hair, sand or water.
