Suction valve Heimlich

The Heimlich drainage valve is a drain valve which is indispensable for the continuous escape of secretions and air. The transparent single-chamber system has a latex return valve that prevents backflow, clot formation and tension pneumothorax. With a distal and proximal conical attachment made of plastic tubing, this valve ensures that no unwanted secretions or air can enter the pleural cavity. In addition, the oscillation of the latex valve allows monitoring of pleural pressure during respiratory movements. Another advantage of this suction valve is that patient transport can be carried out without interrupting the drainage, which improves efficiency and comfort for the patient.
