Chest seal is a commonly used emergency wound-covering medical device designed to help manage penetrating injuries to the chest wall where air can move in and out of the pleural space through an open wound. In hospitals and prehospital systems, it is typically treated as a time-critical consumable: it is simple in concept, but highly dependent on correct selection, application technique, and ongoing monitoring.
