- In this video, we compare brand-new Hyfin chest seals with ones that have been in medical kits and left inside the car for a couple years. We have been asked if you can leave chest seals inside a car during the summer months and they still be usable. This is not a scientific test by any means but we hope this information helps you to make more informed decisions.
You can purchase chest seals from our website at: sixechosystems.com/product/hy...

I used this type of chest seals lot of times. Sometimes, the ways for blood was full of blood and didn't work. I just open it, use ordinary gauze for Cleaning it, and restick.
Military medic from Ukraine.
Great feedback. They are very durable seals and stick to a lot of surfaces including ones that are wet.
Good to know, especially living in the sunshine state (FL).
Great content! Testing is real world concerns.
Great production value on this video! Expected it to have 100k+ views and this to be a huge channel. Hope you get the views you deserve.
Another great video! Thanks for the info
Thanks!....love these type of videos...real world info...much appreciated. 👍
Absolutely! Glad they are useful.
I probably wont watch a lot of your videos but I subscribed because this type of information needs to be more well known. Thanks for making these videos, I will probably pick up an ankle kit from you guys.
Thank you for the support! I feel like this type of information is often overlooked and more people should understand simple medical care concepts. Stay safe!
Above and beyond! Thank you!
Looks like you sell a quality product.
Updating all my kits in the cars and house. Using all the old and outdated to train with the kids. I will be restocking with six echo gear.
Thank you for the support!
Great content and very well presented. Thank you!
Great content
Good video. Your results match my observed results with chest seals stored under different conditions. I wonder if the variability in "stickiness" could be due to lot number? All-in-all a very informative and fun watch!
I took a responder class and it seemed to me the heat actually helps the seals be more sticky - both detrimental and helpful. Harder to peel, but more sticky to stay stuck on. Even just having it sitting in my pocket the seal acted just like the one you used from the oven.
Have some 2019 seals in my kit and this makes me feel more confident in them haha.
Yeah, it sure does. I feel more confident about using some of my older ones too. This was as much learning for me as it was showing you all what I learned. Glad others can benefit as well.
Great video!
I'm interested to see how extreme cold would affect them. I live in Canada and I'm hesitant to leave chest seals in my car.
Here too can reach -5 celsius
Can you do this with combat gauze please!
when or why chest seal applies..thanks..following you frm manila Philippines 👨🚒
penetrating trauma to the chest (eg gsw/stabs) to prevent pneumothorax (air trapped in pleural space, compressing collapsing the lung and sometimes the heart)
Thanks for these tests! Another similar test that would be nice: Quickclot. Also a video on Israeli bandages (and others) past expiration date: keep or trash?
This week's video will talk a bit about pressure bandages. So stay tuned for that.
i'm sorry but what's the point in testing them on a plastic dummy when skin is a completely different story, not tot mention when it's hairy, sweaty, bloody and muddy? I've seen a few videos where high quality chest seals like those NAR's or Halo would barely stick to an actual skin
A hairy chest is my biggest concern.
Question? What about us hairy guys. Does the area bees to be shaved for it to stick properly?
That’s a good question. But typically no. Those seals are super sticky and will usually push through the hair and stick to the chest. What threshold is too much hair? That I don’t know. Gotta think if some good ways to test that out. Maybe we will do a follow up so this video…
@@SixEcho thanks.
The adhesive isn't what forms the seal for the most part . It's there to keep that plastic layer in place for any suction to pull it against the wound. You can really see this with older methods - the wound will hold an occlusive layer in place during inhalation .
@@SixEcho I know in AEDs over here they include a razor to shave the chest before applying a pad, but that's a bit more drastic than sticking a seal to close a hole.
@@DavidCumps With the AED pads it has a gel that has to make contact with the skin to keep from burning the skin when it shocks so good firm contact is critical here. With the chest seals, it just has to hold on tight enough to keep that plastic in the center close enough to the hole to get sucked up against it when the patient inhales.
