Tholok Chest Seal is a medical device used for treating open chest wounds, often caused by penetrating trauma like gunshot or stab wounds.
It functions by creating an airtight seal over the wound, preventing the entry of air into the chest cavity. This helps alleviate the risk of tension pneumothorax, a potentially life-threatening condition.
Tholok Chest seal is crucial in stabilizing the patient's condition in emergency situations until they can receive proper medical care. Tholok dressing is made of flexible, airtight material with adhesive backing.
