Heimlich Chest Drain Valve
Bard-Parker
Specially-designed flutter valve used to replace underwater bottles in chest drainage
Constructed of rubber tubing, the valve is compressed at one end to form leaflets that control unidirectional flow.
The valve is encased in a transparent plastic chamber with tapered ends
The proximal end of the casing can be attached to most chest catheters and the distal end to tubing that empties into a plastic bag
