The effect of thoracentesis on lung function and transthoracic electrical bioimpedance [PDF]
This study aimed to determine the relationship between improvement in lung function and changes in transthoracic electrical bioimpedance (TEB) after thoracentesis in patients with pleural effusions.Fifteen patients with pleural effusions due to either ...

Electrical impedance measured changes in thoracic fluid content during thoracentesis
In patients (seven females and 11 males) with pleural effusion due to pulmonary (n = 13) or cardiac disease (n = 5) the change in baseline transthoracic impedance (Z0) was measured by electrical impedance (BoMed's NCCOM-3, 70 kHz) during thoracentesis ...

Thoracentesis In Cardiac Surgery Patients With Non-Specific Pleural Effusion: A Case-Control Study [PDF]
Non-specific pleural effusion is common in patients after cardiac surgery. Thoracentesis for non- specific pleural effusion is being used more frequently with informal observations of improved dyspnea, shorter length of inpatient stay (LOS), reduced need

Pleural fluid characteristics of patients with COVID‐19 infection
Introduction Pleural effusions are known to occur in many cases of COVID‐19. Data on typical characteristics of COVID‐19‐associated pleural effusions are limited. The goal of this project was to characterize the pleural fluid from patients with COVID‐19.

Factors affecting the development of pneumothorax associated with thoracentesis
This study is a retrospective survey of the variables that may influence the development of pneumothorax after thoracentesis. In a 30-month period, a computer search of hospital records identified 342 thoracenteses, of which 154 were done with ...
