After the insertion of a temporary pacemaker lead through the left subclavian vein, she developed an ipsilateral pneumothorax. Although there were clinical and echocardiographic signs of cardiac tamponade after chest tube placement for pneumothorax, a second echocardiogram performed after transportation for s...
متن کاملRole of small calibre chest tube drainage for iatrogenic pneumothorax.
A 2 mm Teflon catheter was used as a chest tube in 28 patients with iatrogenic pneumothorax. Frequent aspirations through the catheter were performed in 16 of the patients. In the remaining 12 patients the catheter was connected to a one way flutter valve. The treatment was successful in 27 of the 28 patients--one patient required a large calibre chest tube. The mean drainage time was 48 hours....
متن کاملpneumothorax following feeding tube placement: precaution and treatment
nasojejunal feeding tubes are being used at an increased frequency, but it is not without complications that could be life-threatening. we report two cases of pneumothorax following small-bore feeding tube insertion into the pleural cavity, resulting in pneumothorax. we further discuss the potential measures that can be taken to prevent and treat this serious complication.
متن کاملSpontaneous pneumothorax: stop chest tube as first-line therapy.
Spontaneous pneumothorax is traditionally divided between primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) and secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP) when there is some underlying lung disease. For decades management of spontaneous pneumothorax has remained highly debatable despite different published guidelines [1–3], many of which contradict each other. Our task force, comprising a multidisciplinary ...
