North American Rescue SPEAR - Simplified Pneumothorax Emergency Air Release Kit (MPN: 10-0051)

Rapid Response for Tension Pneumothorax

The North American Rescue SPEAR (Simplified Pneumothorax Emergency Air Release) Kit is the latest advancement in needle decompression for emergency care. Created in direct response to scientific research and feedback from real users, the SPEAR device addresses the critical challenges of managing tension pneumothorax in the field. Medical professionals often face the pain point of needle separation or poor confirmation of placement during high-stress situations. The SPEAR kit solves these problems with advanced design features that support faster, more effective intervention.

Innovative Features for Confidence and Ease of Use

Every element of the SPEAR device has been built to improve your experience and increase the chance of successful decompression. The needle has a sharper point to allow easier insertion with less force, saving valuable time and effort. A secure spin-lock feature keeps the needle and catheter connected until you are ready for separation. Depth markings in centimeters help confirm proper placement, while a detachable, low-pressure one-way check valve creates an audible whistle when air passes through, offering clear confirmation of success. The one-way valve can be removed and reapplied as needed, following local protocols.

Flexible, Effective, and Built for the Field

The catheter, made from a flexible, kink-resistant material, has a soft tip to protect tissue. Three fenestrations along its length maximize air flow and help restore breathing quickly. The device supports both lateral decompression and traditional anterior needle thoracostomy. Its rugged, pen-style case ensures easy storage and quick access when every second counts. The larger 10-gauge lumen increases air flow area by more than two and a half times compared to a 14-gauge needle, helping reach the pleural space in most patients. Supplied sterile and designed for single use, the SPEAR device is trusted by professionals for reliability in critical situations.
