From the producer
In the heat of battle, the HALO Chest Seal can make the difference in saving lives. Ideal for the treatment of open pneumothorax, this seal also prevents the development of tension pneumothorax resulting from gunshots, stab wounds, or other chest injuries and is specifically designed for casualties with excessive bleeding, heavy perspiration, or very wet and extreme environments. The unique design offers a large pull tab that allows for easy, quick application. A highly-aggressive hydrogel enables the HALO Seal to conform and adhere to all contours of the body and also prevents further contamination of the injury.

The HALO Seal has been tested and designed to perform under extreme conditions. Temperature ranges below 32° F / 0° C to over 140° F / 60° C.
