Dynamic and volumetric variables reliably predict fluid responsiveness in a porcine model with pleural effusion. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BackgroundThe ability of stroke volume variation (SVV), pulse pressure variation (PPV) and global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) for prediction of fluid responsiveness in presence of pleural effusion is unknown. The aim of the present study was to challenge

Pleural manometry in pleural effusion [PDF]
Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2016 Pleural manometry is a valuable tool to determine lung expansibility and helps to avoid unsafe pressure changes during thoracentesis. Study design: Cross-sectional descriptive study. Aim of the work: To measure the pleural pressure during thoracocentesis

Understanding cardiopulmonary interactions through esophageal pressure monitoring
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 Esophageal pressure is the closest estimate of pleural pressure. Changes in esophageal pressure reflect changes in intrathoracic pressure and affect transpulmonary pressure, both of which have multiple effects on right and left ventricular performance ...

Report of results of pleural biopsy (Needle biopsy and open biopsy) in 108 cases and 245 biopsies [PDF]
, 1960 1. The results of 245 pleural biopsies perfomed in 108 patients including 219 pleural needle biopsies and 26 pleural open biopsies were reported. The method of pleural biopsy seems to be superior to any other currently available diagnostic procedures for

Control of bleeding from intercostal artery laceration
Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022 Laceration of an intercostal artery is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of pleural procedures such as thoracentesis. Recognition of this problem often occurs late in the bleeding process, only after hemodynamic decompensation has occurred.

Comparison of same day diagnostic tools including Gene Xpert and unstimulated IFN-γ for the evaluation of pleural tuberculosis: a prospective cohort study [PDF]
, 2014 Background: The accuracy of currently available same-day diagnostic tools (smear microscopy and conventional nucleic acid amplification tests) for pleural tuberculosis (TB) is sub-optimal. Newer technologies may offer improved detection.
