Hyfin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack

The HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack by North American Rescue (NAR) is a vented chest seal designed for first aid management of penetrating chest injuries. The vented occlusive dressing is intended to seal the wound and is included among the devices recommended for the management of open chest injuries in current TCCC and TECC tactical emergency care guidelines.

The twin-pack configuration allows both the entry and exit wounds of a through-and-through injury to be covered simultaneously or enables one seal to be used immediately while the second remains sterile until needed. For this reason, the HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack is widely used by military medics, emergency medical services, rescue personnel, tactical medicine instructors, and individuals assembling modern Individual First Aid Kits (IFAKs).

Features of the HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack

The HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack is one of the most widely recognized vented chest seals for the prehospital management of open pneumothorax. Its design combines reliable wound sealing, effective venting, and dependable adhesion under challenging conditions. These characteristics have contributed to its adoption by military organizations and civilian emergency medical services in many countries.

The North American Rescue Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack establishes a high standard for managing penetrating chest injuries. Each package contains two individually packaged chest seals, allowing treatment of both entry and exit wounds or preserving one sterile seal for later use.

Its innovative design incorporates three vent channels that help prevent air from entering the chest cavity during inhalation while allowing air to escape during exhalation. The channels also facilitate fluid drainage. If two channels become obstructed, the third continues to function, helping maintain vent performance.

Key advantages:

• vented chest seal for the management of penetrating chest injuries;
• twin pack containing two individually packaged chest seals;
• three vent channels for controlled air release;
• advanced adhesive designed to adhere to skin covered with blood, perspiration, or hair;
• large red pull tab for rapid opening and application;
• transparent backing for accurate wound placement;
• durable Red Tip Technology® packaging;
• gauze pad included for skin preparation before application;
• supports current TCCC, TECC, and EMS recommendations.

The advanced adhesive technology provides dependable fixation even when the patient's skin is covered with blood, perspiration, hair, or other contaminants. The HyFin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack was specifically developed for these demanding conditions. Each chest seal is packaged separately in an airtight foil pouch that opens quickly, with an included gauze pad for preparing the skin before application.
