The ARS for Needle Decompression is a 14 gauge x 3.25" needle and catheter in a compact container with a clip, for advanced trauma kits and aid bags. The needle and catheter sit in a protective tube inside a container with a textured twist top and clip, and the flash chamber is capless. Packaged at 5.7" x 0.7" x 0.8" and 0.6 oz, it arrives sterile and single use, and supply sections can order it under NSN 6515-01-541-0635.

Why it works:

  • A container with its own clip: The container carries its own attachment point. It has a textured twist top with a clip.
  • Needle and catheter under cover: The tube is part of the container. The needle and catheter sit in a protective tube.
  • A defined size for kit lists: Kit lists can name the exact size. The needle and catheter measure 14 gauge x 3.25" (8.25 cm), with a capless flash chamber.
  • Narrow enough for a pocket slot: It takes a thin slot in a pocket or aid bag. The packaged size is 5.7" L x 0.7" W x 0.8", and it weighs 0.6 oz.
  • NSN and SEL on record: Supply sections can list it by number. It carries NSN 6515-01-541-0635 and SEL 09MS-02-THOR, under U.S. Patents D595,847 and 001002372-0001, with patents pending.

Who it's built for:

Combat medics and special operations corpsmen stock it in advanced aid bags. Tactical and flight paramedics stage it in compact trauma kits, and agencies and departments requisition it by NSN.
