Description
The NORSE RESCUE® DECOPIN is an emergency decompression needle intended for the treatment of tension pneumothorax in adult patients suffering from progressive respiratory distress due to thoracic trauma. This sterile, single-use device is specifically designed for use by trained medical personnel in pre-hospital and emergency settings. It features a 14-gauge, 8.25 cm (3.25 inch) cannula, providing the necessary length and diameter for effective access to the pleural space and relief of intrathoracic pressure.
The DECOPIN is sterilized by irradiation, ensuring a high standard of patient safety. It is intended solely for adult patients and is contraindicated for use in pediatric or pregnant patients, as well as in cases of simple pneumothorax, hemothorax, barotrauma, or in individuals with known pleural adhesions. Proper aseptic techniques must be followed during use to prevent infection. The device is intended for single use only and should be disposed of after use in accordance with local regulations for biomedical waste. It has a shelf life of five years from the date of manufacture, ensuring it is ready for use in critical situations.
