Incidence and risk factors of pneumothorax following pre-procedural ultrasound-guided thoracentesis

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2020
Background Data regarding the incidence and risk factors of pneumothorax following pre-procedural ultrasound (US)-guided thoracentesis is scarce. We aimed to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of pneumothorax following pre-procedural US-guided ...

Minimal clinically important difference for chest discomfort in patients undergoing pleural interventions

BMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2020
Rationale Therapeutic thoracentesis is among the most frequently performed medical procedures. Chest discomfort is a common complication and has been associated with increasingly negative pleural pressure as fluid is withdrawn in the setting of non ...

Ultrasound in predicting improvement in dyspnoea after therapeutic thoracentesis in patients with recurrent unilateral pleural effusion

European Clinical Respiratory Journal
Background In patients with recurrent pleural effusion, therapeutic thoracentesis is one way of relief. Correct prediction of which patients will experience relief following drainage may support the management of these patients.

Routine monitoring with pleural manometry during therapeutic large-volume thoracentesis to prevent pleural-pressure-related complications: a multicentre, single-blind randomised controlled trial.

The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND In patients with non-expandable lung, removal of pleural fluid can result in excessively negative pleural pressure, which is associated with chest discomfort, pneumothorax, and re-expansion pulmonary oedema. Pleural manometry is widely used to

The dead still teach the living: Body donor dissection in the digital age of anatomy education

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Donor‐based dissection has become increasingly contested in modern medical curricula as digital anatomy platforms, simulation technologies, virtual dissection tables, three‐dimensional reconstructions, and artificial intelligence‐supported learning have expanded.

Trajectory of dyspnoea in patients with unilateral pleural effusion following thoracentesis.

, 2022
Introduction: In patients with pleural effusion, maximal relief of dyspnoea is perceived to occur in the days after therapeutic thoracentesis. Intuitively, re-accumulation of pleural fluid should lead to a steady increase in dyspnoea. This study aimed to

Thoracentesis to alleviate pleural effusion in acute heart failure: study protocol for the multicentre, open-label, randomised controlled TAP-IT trial

BMJ Open
Introduction Pleural effusion is present in half of the patients hospitalised with acute heart failure. The condition is treated with diuretics and/or therapeutic thoracentesis for larger effusions.
