A vented chest seal has one job it must not fail at: letting trapped air out. The common failure is a blocked vent, and a blocked vented seal behaves like an occlusive one at the worst possible moment.
FOXseal Vented does not rely on a single valve. It vents through 24 ports in three radial circles of eight, giving 512 pathways, so blocking one does not close the system. Medtrade bench-tested it for vent performance when creased and under clothing or body armour.
A grip tab lets you decompress and re-seal without replacing the dressing.
13.0 x 13.3 cm, sterile, latex-free, three-year shelf life. Included in the ARTG as a Class IIb pneumothorax dressing, 394129.
