Enhance Recovery.
Optimize ICU Resource Utilization.

Preserving critical ICU resources and getting patients home faster has never been more pressing.

A recently-published peer-reviewed study found that actively maintaining chest tube patency in early hours following cardiac surgery can reduce complications and lead to a 32% reduction in the ICU LOS and a 20% reduction in patient ventilator time.20

PleuraFlow® Active Clearance Technology® (ACT)

Inadequate evacuation due to chest tube occlusion may result in retained blood around the heart and lungs after cardiac surgery, compromising recovery due to complications. The PleuraFlow Active Clearance System has been shown to reduce ICU resource utilization, reduce or prevent retained blood and improve outcomes.

Find out more about how PleuraFlow Active Clearance Technology can help free ICU resources and get patients home faster.
