Mechanical Ventilation Nursing Notes

Baylie | BSN, RN loading… 🩺 on Instagram: "Let’s talk: CHEST TUBES 🫁 What are chest tubes? A chest tube is inserted into the pleural space via the chest wall to remove air or fluid. Indications: -Pneumothorax -Hemothorax -Pleural effusion ***I have seen a tik Tok regarding this, and many nurses have told me they have seen people do this unfortunately… but PLEASE have your chest tube connected to a chamber, NOT JUST the suction canister on the wall. All chest tubes MUST have a chamber. ****
