Enhanced ARS For Needle Decompression (10 GAUGE X 3.25 IN.)

Enhanced Features

Acting on evidence-based medicine, North American Rescue is introducing the Enhanced ARS™ (Air Release System) as an additional offering in their needle decompression product line. The Enhanced ARS™ brings several features specifically implemented to address needs identified in the data.

The Enhanced ARS™ features an improved needle tip design with “scalpel” sharp, bi-bevel, tapered needle tip, which improves penetration control through tissue of varied type and thickness.

The NEW fenestrated catheter delivers statistically significant improvement for tension relief and the prevention of distal catheter occlusion when compared to traditional non-fenestrated catheters. The three fenestrations, combined with the catheter tip, deliver four paths for air to escape. This exponentially decreases the potential for blockage that would interfere with airflow and recurrence of tension pneumothorax. During investigative research, fenestrated catheters were additionally shown to offer faster pressure relief and succeed when non-fenestrated catheters failed.

Features:

• Improved "Scalpel" Needle Design
• Fenestrated Catheter
• Increased Catheter Flexibility
• Centimeter Graduated
• Hardshell Packaging
• 5-Year Expiration
