Pleural puncture sets

Pleural puncture sets – an effective treatment possibility

Pleural effusions, in other words accumulations of air and/or fluids in the pleural cavity between the ribs and pleura, pose a risk of life-threatening impediments of cardiopulmonary functions. A one-off needle puncture for the removal of air or fluid presents an effective treatment possibility.

PRODUCT FEATURES

Easy handling thanks to confusion-proof three-way-valve

Very safe (3 safety valves, – on puncture needle, catheter and three-way-valve)

Color indicator on puncture needle indicates penetration into pleural cavity

Option of taking a specimen directly with the needle

Automatic three-way-valve makes switchovers unnecessary. Effusion can be aspirated with the catheter and transferred into the drainage bag simply by pressing the syringe.

Very low risk of injury with safety puncture needle (Veres needle) – blunt tip as long as no pressure is applied

The system enables aspiration both directly via the puncture needle and via the catheter

In the case of recurrent effusions, the catheter can also be left as a ‘mini-drain’ for a short time,- repeated puncturing is not necessary
