Doctors probe pressures inside collapsed lungs
NCT ID NCT04630301
Summary
This study aimed to understand if measuring the pressure inside the chest of someone with a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) can help predict their recovery. Researchers measured this pressure in 37 adult patients as they received standard treatment with a chest tube. The goal was to see if the initial pressure reading could tell doctors which patients might later need more invasive procedures to fix the lung.
