Anyone with experience using these? Any quick advice on how they operate--and things that can go wrong? Thanks!:kiss

Never heard of them...will watch and see what turns up.
Is this a "hard exam question?" :)

I have never heard of them either and will also read and learn by watching this thread.

I had an inservice on them...gosh more than a year ago??? The facility was supposed to be switching to them from the pleurovac systems that we currently still use....
Still haven't seen them....But I will say I remember that they were pretty nice....
The ease of setting them and was great!! NO pouring of water to this line or that
Still waiting for them though:)

Check out this link to the Genzyme Bio....the makers of pleur-a-vac and the Sahara dry seal system. hope this helps
Thanks for the link.... we're going to be using these A LOT on the clinical floor next semester, so trying to get more familiar with them.
Vicky,
You are more than welcome. I also emailed Genzyme Bio and requested information. I will be happy to share with you any further infor that I obtain.
