Chest Tube thoracostomy is the insertion of a tube (chest tube) into the pleural cavity to drain air, blood, bile, pus, or other fluids. Placement of a chest tube allows for continuous, large volume drainage until the underlying pathology can be more formally addressed. The list of specific treatable etiologies is extensive (see Indications), but without intervention, patients are at great risk for major morbidity or mortality.
Chest tube was inserted at left lung. According to the patient she can’t do what she wants because every time she moves the incision was painful. REFERENCE: http://www.thefreedictionary.com/surgical+incision http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/80678-overview

Fluid was removed for appropriate bacteriological, hematological, and chemical analyses.Once this was accomplished, then a larger tube using a Cope pleural biopsy needle was inserted into the space, and four quadrants were biopsied and sent for appropriate pathological specimens. Once that was accomplished, then using a small-caliber temporary chest tube from the Cope, as well as the pneumothorax set, the space was entered, and 1.5 liters of bloody fluid was removed. A small bandage was attached afterward. There was no pain involved, and the chest x-ray will be taken afterward to assure ourselves that we had a reasonable effect without any ill consequences.…

    A surgical procedure is medical treatment that involves a physician cutting into a patient’s body to repair or remove something. Surgery procedures have existed since prehistoric man. In 1540 C.E. barbers and surgeons united to form The United Barber-Surgeons Company. These barber-surgeons performed tooth extractions and bloodletting procedures. As our knowledge grows, so do our abilities. Some procedures such as tracheostomy, described in detail by Paul of Aegina (625-690 AD), remain pertinent today while others which contributed to the demise of many patients (e.g. bloodletting) were surprisingly slow to disappear (Hindle, K. S., & Hindle, S. J., 2001).…

    To advance physical and intellectual competence I provide various amounts of equipment and activities that help promote the physical development of children. I do this by offering activities that will allow children to use their small muscles and large muscles. Children need these types of activities so they can become familiar about how to use their muscles and to develop body strength. Activities such as throwing things, rolling balls, moving arms up and down will help children gain upper body strength. Activities such as jumping, running and balancing themselves will help them gain strength in the lower parts of their bodies. These activities allow them to work with their gross motor skills. Activities such as painting, puzzles, writing, coloring and typing on the keyboard allows them to use their fine motor skills.…

    Patient is a 61-year-old white male admitted through the ER with on December 10 with recurrent right pneumothoraxes. Patient is known to have COPD with emphysema and has multiple admissions for problems concerning this. At the time of initial evaluation, a small caliber chest tube was inserted in the anterior axillary line, which improved the patient’s respiratory distress but did not completely resolve the pneumothorax. I was called to the ICU to place a second small caliber chest tube in the posterior axillary line below this. This further improved the patient’s pulmonary status with his saturation improving from 76& to 89%. Since admission he has felt better but complained of pain at the chest tube insertion site. He has continued to leak out through the pleur-evac under water seal, and beginning yesterday he developed subcutaneous emphysema, which has gotten progressively worse. Earlier today he began having increased respiratory difficulty again, with his saturation dropping to approximately 80 % despite oxygen per nasal cannula. Chest x-ray today showed a worsening of the right lower lobe loculated pneumothorax, and on examination today he is not only leaking air through the pleur-evac system but also around the two chest tubes.…
