It's a 14‑gauge, ~3.25″ (≈8.6 cm) catheter-over-needle device with a hollow, closed-end stylet and spring-loaded safety tip. A visible color indicator confirms placement in the pleural space upon tip retraction.This sterile, single-use device is packaged case-style (PNEUMODART‑CA) containing 40 units. The design is compact, rugged, and compliant with medical standards for emergency and field settings.
