In today’s increasingly precarious world, medical chest seals are an essential part of any trauma first response kit. Chest seals are simple medical devices used to treat gunshot wounds and other forms of penetrating chest trauma. The use of these devices requires both familiarity and muscle memory when they are used under stressful, or hostile circumstances. Though commonly carried and employed in live EMS, tactical and combat activations, actual medical seals are frequently underutilised during training, due to cost and the discomfort upon removal from hair covered skin.

The Simu-Seal has been designed to promote the use of medical chest seals and familiarise EMS, Military and Law Enforcement personnel with the indications and use of medical chest seals in the setting of training. This device is both INEXPENSIVE and EASY TO REMOVE from even densely hair covered skin with minimal or no discomfort. Made in the U.S.A. from high quality, latex free, medical grade materials.

• The Simu-Seal Practice Chest Seal is a training only device developed to simulate medical chest seal placement in the mock treatment of sucking chest wounds
• Latex-free and designed with trainee comfort in mind, the Simu-Seal can be applied to intact skin and removed easily with minimal discomfort and depilation (hair loss)
• The tabs on the device allow for practice of porting: a procedure used with non-vented chest seals
• The central hole prevents the use of the Simu-Seal as a medical device and reminds trainee's to center the device to a mock bullet wound
• Designed for single use on skin
• Though reusable on manikins, Simu-Seal is not engineered for extended use on synthetic surfaces like manikins and other synthetic demonstration substrates
• The two pack allows to practice treating both mock entry and exit wounds at a fraction of the cost of medical chest seals
• Packaged in a tear-open pouch with gauze sponges and a multilingual instruction card, the Simu-Seal allows for realistic simulation of tear open chest seal products
• Practi-Seal products are the clear choice to maximise your training budget

The Truth Hurts...

Practi-Seal practice chest seals are available in 2 different pack sizes. This model is:

Simu-Seal Practice Chest Seal Pack of 2 (Tear Open)

If the medical seal you carry is in a peel-open pack then the single pack practice chest seals are right for you however, if you have a tear-open chest seal then this pack of 2 practice chest seals will provide a more rewarding and realistic training experience.
