Relief puncture needle TPAK

Gauge: 14 | Quantity content: 1 pc

The TPAK drainage puncture needle is a medical instrument used to remove fluids or gases from the body. It is specially designed for use in cases of ascites (ascites) or pleural effusion (fluid in the lungs). The TPAK needle consists of a thin metal tip embedded in a plastic sheath. This sheath stabilises the needle and makes it easier to insert into the body. A Luer lock connection allows the needle to be connected to a drainage system in order to safely drain the drained fluid or gas. The TPAK needle is characterised by its thinness and sharpness, which makes it easy to insert into the body and causes only minimal pain. The plastic sheath protects against accidental punctures to surrounding tissue. The use of the TPAK needle requires specialised knowledge and experience, especially in sensitive areas such as the lungs or abdomen. A careful procedure is necessary to avoid injuries and to perform the relief safely. The TPAK drainage puncture needle is an important instrument in medical practice for safely removing fluids or gas accumulations in the body. Precise application and monitoring are essential to prevent complications and achieve optimal results for the patient.

Which symptoms are controlled as part of the cABCDE scheme under Breathing?

The following questions are asked:

Is there adequate respiratory activity?
Is the oxygen supply sufficient?
Is the patient using the auxiliary respiratory muscles?
Are injuries to the chest recognisable?
Is the ventilation of the lungs equal on both sides?
Can abnormal breathing noises such as rales be heard?
Are there air pockets under the skin?
Are the neck veins congested?

What measures are taken to secure the breathing and chest?

Breathing should be checked again after each measure carried out: By counting the respiratory rate, attention is paid to irregular breathing or lack of breathing. If breathing has stopped, cardiopulmonary resuscitation must be performed.

The respiratory rate refers to the number of breaths per certain period of time, usually per minute. It has an effect on the heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen levels in the body. In adults, the normal range for respiratory rate is usually between 12 and 16 breaths per minute.

If a lung injury is recognisable, immediate treatment of the injury must be initiated. The abdomen is also palpated in this step. If the abdomen is very hard, there may be injuries to internal organs.

A decompression puncture needle is used to remove air, blood or fluid from the chest in order to reduce the pressure in the chest and relieve pressure on the thorax.

In our category "Respiratory / Chest" you will find a carefully selected range of products aimed at providing you with optimal solutions in critical situations.
