The North American Rescue SPEAR (Simplified Pneumothorax Emergency Air Release) is a next-generation solution for the treatment of tension pneumothorax designed to deliver immediate and controlled chest decompression in the field. Developed with direct input from military and prehospital trauma specialists, the SPEAR provides enhanced safety, accuracy, and ease of use for rescuers performing one of the most critical life-saving procedures in trauma care.
The SPEAR features a 10-gauge, 3.25-inch catheter-over-needle design with a spring-loaded safety tip that retracts on contact with the chest wall, helping reduce the risk of injury to underlying structures. The built-in flash chamber gives visual confirmation of pleural entry, while the integrated depth control indicator and vented catheter allow rapid pressure relief. Packaged sterile and ready to deploy, the SPEAR provides superior reliability for both tactical and civilian medical responders.
