Esa incisión está muy amplia. Parece toracotomía abierta no cerrada
Mine was like being poked in the ribs with a wire coat hanger. It fell out after 4 days and they had to do another one.
Where is the stay stitch? How you gonna close the wound after removing the drain ? You must put a stay stitch first in the middle of the wound
Is that a dangerous or not?
My little 7 year old just had this done to him due to fluids built up around his lung 🙁 luckily its out and hes breathing better now
God please give me the strength to get through this. I need to sue the acupuncturist that caused this.
Alright Madonna
That’s what they did to me??💔💔
That’s fine… As long as the first 20 seconds are taken up by the administration of propofol
WHY DOES IT BLINK?!
lol that incision was too big
A̶a̶a̶😢h̶h̶h̶h̶h̶
Why not wrap the string around the tube a few times before tieing it? That way you can use the same string to close the incision when the tube is removed using one-hand knots.
Thats kind of what happens during autopsy
While you do this procedure is the patient sedated? Or not sedated?
Where is the big forklift guy when you need him?😂
Watched my ex get a chest tube in. They gave him the white anesthetic IV, and he was thrashing out in pain the entire time begging them to stop. The dr placed the chest tube incorrectly and it was compressing an artery in his lung.
boy that sure is an unnecessarily large incision
The doctor pulling up this video before my surgery.
Had a chest tube in my left lung 6 years ago. Was awake, heavily sedated. Even being on morphine and not being able to feel my broken ribs AT ALL, the pain from them removing the chest tube was even to this day the worst pain i have ever experienced.
Cant remember them putting the thing in. Luckily.
I was wide awake when they put two of these in my chest, some of the worst pain I experienced in my life. I had another one in after my left lung needed to be drained, I now have three scars on my left chest. Excuse my language, but chest tubes just suck ass man
The cut to the mannequin face 😂
I had a collapsed lung about two years ago now. I've got a little scar from the hole in my side from this procedure, although the most noticable change is the severed nerve.
Nice to see the procedure from the side!
