THORA-VENT
Device for the Treatment of Pneumothorax
Apparatus specially designed to provide the treatment of all types of pneumothorax, from the spontaneous, to the traumatic and iatrogenic, including hypertensive, with any extension.

Features and Benefits:
-
The red signal diaphragm deflects upwards when the catheter tip enters the
pleural space. It then continues to fluctuate with respiration as the intrapleural
pressure varies from > +2mm Hg to <-2mm Hg. When the signal diaphragm stays in the down position and the patient is asymptomatic the pneumothorax may be
resolved;
-
The self- contained vent allows patients complete ambulation during resolution;
-
Radiopaque catheter, developed with Ureflex material, highly soft, flexible, and
kink resistant with multiple drainage openings in its distal portion;
-
Compartment with a storage capacity of up to 5 mL of fluid;
-
Trocar: allows easy percutaneous insertion of the catheter into the pleural cavity. It has a groove along its entire length that provides the start of drainage of the pneumothorax from its insertion;
-
Hydrophobic filter: responsible for bacterial filtration;
-
Unidirectional valve: prevents the air and / or liquid reflux from the device to the patient;
-
The syringe-activated drain port allows aspiration of small amounts of fluid (up to 5 ml);
-
Aspirating cannula: one-way valve that allows manual aspiration of the pneumothorax;
-
Suction extension: provided for the performance of a vacuum suction;
-
Occlusion cap: provided to occlude the device for the performance of X-rays to determine the resolution of the pneumothorax.
