Chest Tube Drainage of the Pleural Space: A Concise Review for Pulmonologists

Abstract: Chest tube insertion is a common procedure usually done for the purpose of draining accumulated air or fluid in the pleural cavity. Small-bore chest tubes (≤14F) are generally recommended as the first-line therapy for spontaneous pneumothorax in non-ventilated patients and pleural effusions in general, with the possible exception of hemothoraces and malignant effusions (for which an immediate pleurodesis is planned). Large-bore chest drains may be useful for very large air leaks, as well as post-ineffective tr… Show more

“…Fourth, we could not analyze the impact of analgesic or sedative drug dosages or nonpharmacological therapies used during the procedures or the implementation of life support therapies. Fifth, we did not record details concerning chest drain-related procedures [30,31]. Drain size (e.g., indwelling small catheter, small-bore chest drain, large-bore chest drain), use of premedication and/or local anesthesia, con rmation of the insertion site via ultrasonography or needle suction, chest wall dissection (by nger, curved hemostat or clamp, or trocar), and parietal refection and sutures (none, "mattress" suture, or "purse string" suture) would enable better understanding the self-perceived pain.…”
