The efficacy of x-rays after chest tube removal
The American Journal of Surgery, 2000The insertion and subsequent removal of chest tubes are frequently performed procedures. We hypothesize that routine chest radiographs obtained after chest tube removal to confirm the absence of any post-procedure complications have little impact on clinical management.A 5-year retrospective study of 73 patients with tube thoracotomies was performed in

Chest Tube Removal: End-Inspiration or End-Expiration?
The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 2001Recurrent pneumothorax is the most significant complication after discontinuation of thoracostomy tubes. The primary objective of the present study was to determine which method of tube removal, at the end of inspiration or at the end of expiration, is associated with a lesser risk of developing a recurrent pneumothorax.

Operative procedures on the pleural space are usually managed by chest tube drainage. Timing for removing the tube is empirically established, with wide variation among surgeons. Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of establishing a volume of 200 mL/d of uninfected drainage as a threshold for removal of chest tube, as compared ...
