Project Details
Description
Pleural effusion is a frequent finding in the intensive care unit, it can condition hypoxemia and alteration in lung mechanics. Drainage with chest tubes and thoracentesis based on anatomical repairs and auscultation have a high rate of complications. The use of ultrasound to perform thoracentesis significantly decreases the incidence of complications, this study reports a series of cases of patients in intensive care who underwent ultrasound-guided thoracentesis in real time.
