How does pneumothorax do

Suffering from pneumothorax, then generally must be absolutely bed rest, do not move, try to speak less, so that lung activity is reduced, conducive to gas absorption. It is suitable for the first attack with lung collapse less than 20% without dyspnea.

Exhaust therapy is suitable for patients with obvious dyspnea and severe lung compression, especially those with tension pneumothorax who need emergency exhaust. (1) (2) closed thoracic drainage.

The purpose of the operation is to control the air leakage of the lung, to deal with the pathological changes of the lung, and to prevent the recurrence of pneumothorax by making the visceral and parietal pleural adhesions. In recent years, due to the development of thoracic surgery, mainly the improvement of surgical methods and surgical instruments, especially the progress of video-assisted thoracoscopic instruments and technology, surgical treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax has become a safe and reliable method. Surgery can not only eliminate the break of the lung, but also fundamentally deal with the primary lesions, such as pulmonary bullae, bronchopleural fistula, tuberculosis perforation, etc., or ensure pleural fixation through surgery. Therefore, it is an effective method for the treatment of intractable pneumothorax, and also the most effective measure to prevent recurrence.
