Description
thoracic drainage catheter commonly known as a chest tube, is a medical device used to remove air, fluid, or pus from the pleural space (the area between the lungs and chest wall). It is commonly inserted to treat conditions like pneumothorax (collapsed lung), pleural effusion (fluid buildup), hemothorax (blood in the chest), and empyema (infection). The catheter helps re-expand the lung, relieve pressure, and prevent complications by draining accumulated material, promoting recovery and lung function.
