“…This case shows that auscultation of lung sounds and immediate thoracic imaging ( e.g., chest X-ray, thoracic ultrasound, CT of the thorax) are important steps in determining the side of hemithorax injury. In this context, physical examination and auscultation have high sensitivity (90%) and specificity (98%)[ 1 ].…”

“…However, according to Poiseuille’s law and the results of Fanning’s equation, an increase in pipe diameter leads to an exponential increase in the fluid and gas flowing through it. Therefore, the Advanced Trauma Life Support recommends that chest drains larger than 28 F be used to accurately assess the true volume of blood loss in cases of acute hemothorax[ 1 ]. In our case, the initial intervention was tube thoracostomy using a 32 F chest drain with the diagnosis of pneumohemothorax in the emergency department.…”

“…Ungeachtet der möglichen gravierenden Folgen einer Brustkorbverletzung wird selbst für Polytraumapatienten mit relevantem stumpfem Thoraxtrauma eine konservative Behandlungsrate (inkl. Thoraxdrainageneinlage) von 50–80 % angegeben [ 4 , 5 , 8 , 16 ], d. h. mehrheitlich reicht chirurgisch, neben einer möglichst adäquaten Schmerz- und Atemtherapie, eine Drainageneinlage [ 4 , 7 , 8 ]. Diese erfolgt meist notfallmäßig, teilweise bereits präklinisch [ 8 ].…”
