Flutter valve
Valve used in respiratory medicine
In respiratory medicine, a flutter valve is a one-way check valve used to prevent airflow back into a chest tube, and usually is applied to drain air from a pneumothorax. The design of the flutter valve features a rubber sleeve in a plastic case, where the rubber sleeve is arranged so that when air flows through the valve the sleeve opens and allows the outwards airflow from the body of the patient; however, when the airflow is reversed, the rubber sleeve closes and halts backwards airflow into the body of the patient.
