Quick Tube - Quick Tube Chest Tube Kit
A chest tube (chest drain, thoracic catheter, tube thoracostomy, or intercostal drain) is a flexible plastic tube that is inserted through the chest wall and into the pleural space or mediastinum.

Overview
STANDARD CHEST TUBE LIMITATIONS
- Emergency placement of current chest tubes take 3-8 mins to place effectively, resulting compromised brain function and loss of life.
- Suturing does not hold chest tubes in place properly and can cause greater discomfort to the patient once stabilized
- Current chest tubes slide out of the place requiring more chest tubes to be placed for the same patient.
- Chest kits are cumbersome and have two many steps to rapidly deploy in seconds
- Custom chest kits, which include numerous items required to operate the chest tube, can be very expensive to purchase
