Condition: Hemothorax; Traumatic · Sponsor: University of Pennsylvania
This HTX treatment study evaluates the effects of chest tube size and the benefits of daily irrigations on acute HTX. 20 acutely injured but stable trauma patients requiring a chest tube for HTX will be enrolled. Patients will be assigned a 28Fr or 14 Fr chest tube with serial lavage and drainage. The endpoints will be HTX volume (by CT scan), complications, additional interventions, hospital length of stay, chest tube duration, provider feedback, and patient-reported outcomes.
