Thoracentesis and thoracoscopy are used to diagnose malignant pleural effusions (MPE). Data on how sensitivity varies with tumour type is limited....
Systematic review using PubMed was performed through August 2020 to determine the sensitivity of thoracentesis and thoracoscopy for MPE secondary to malignancy, by cancer type, and complication rates....
Meta-analyses for sensitivity of thoracentesis for MPE secondary to malignancy, mesothelioma and lung and breast cancer included 29, eight, 12 and nine studies, respectively. Pooled sensitivities were...
Sensitivity of thoracentesis varied significantly per cancer type. Pooled complication rates were low. Awareness of how sensitivity of thoracentesis changes across cancers can improve decision-making ...
Cough during therapeutic thoracentesis (TT) is considered an adverse effect. The study was aimed to evaluate the relationship between cough during TT and pleural pressure (Ppl) changes (∆P). Instantan...
Metastatic pleural effusion is a cause of dyspnea. The American thoracic society has strongly suggested that studies evaluating thoracic ultrasonography as potentially predictive of improvment of dysp...
We conducted a prospective monocentric observational study to assess chest ultrasound predictors of response to thoracentesis. Fifteen patients with metastatic pleural effusion were included....
The initial mean VAS score was5 ± 2,9 cm. The majority of patients had pleural effusions equal to or greater than 5 intercostal spaces (EIC) in height, while 7 patients had an abnormal curvature of th...
The volume removed was greater in the group with anechoic pleurisy compared to the group with sonographic septation, notwithstanding complex pleural effusion (non-septated, relatively hyperechoic, wit...
The 7 patients with abnormal diaphragmatic curvature presented significant dyspnea with a pain score of approximately 7 and profuse pleurisy occupying 8 intercostal spaces in height. The effusions of ...
The ultrasound characteristics of pleural effusions seem to be predictors of improvment of dyspnea after thoracentesis. The septated and complex aspects are probably predictors of non improvment of dy...
Pleural effusion is common among patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) but reported prevalence varies. Thoracentesis may improve respiratory status, however, indications for this are unclear. We a...
This is a prospective observational study utilizing repeated daily ultrasonographic assessments of pleurae bilaterally, conducted in all adult patients admitted to the four ICUs of a Danish university...
In total, 81 patients were included of which 25 (31%) had or developed ultrasonographically significant pleural effusion. Thoracentesis was performed in 10 of these 25 patients (40%). Patients with ul...
Pleural effusion was common in the ICU, but less than half of all patients with ultrasonographically significant pleural effusion underwent thoracentesis. Progression of pleural effusion without thora...
Preprocedure pleural fluid localization using bedside ultrasound has been shown to reduce complications related to thoracentesis and is now considered the standard of care. However, ultrasound-guided ...
We studied two geographically diverse settings, Harare, Zimbabwe, and Kathmandu, Nepal....
19 multilevel stakeholders including clinical trainees, attendings, clinical educators and hospital administrators were interviewed. There were no exclusion criteria....
To understand the current determinants of USGT adoption in these settings....
Three main themes emerged from these interviews: (1) stakeholders perceived multiple advantages of USGT, (2) access to equipment and training were perceived as limited and (3) while an online training...
Our data suggests that USGT implementation is desired by local stakeholders and that the development of an educational intervention, cocreated with local stakeholders, should be explored to ensure opt...
There are very few professional recommendations or guidelines on the needle thoracentesis decompression (NTD) for the tension pneumothorax in the elderly. This study aimed to investigate the safety an...
The retrospective study was conducted among 136 in-patients over 75 years old. The CWT and closest depth to vital structure of the second intercostal space at the midclavicular line (second ICS-MCL) a...
The CWT of the second ICS-MCL was smaller than the fifth ICS-MAL both on the left and the right side (...
The second ICS-MCL was recommended as the primary thoracentesis site and a 7 cm needle was advised as preferred needle length for the older patients. Factors such as age, sex, presence or absence of C...
Tension pneumothorax is a rare and life-threatening situation in neonates requiring immediate intervention through thoracentesis. Significant complications can arise while performing thoracentesis in ...
The simulator incorporates a custom manikin and virtual reality software interfaced through electromagnetic sensors that track the motion of surgical instruments. The software application reads and st...
The preliminary trial held at the University of Illinois Hospital in the presence of 1 neonatologist and 4 fellows revealed that all the participants used the autonomous guidance more than once, and a...
Although the sample size is small, the simulator shows potential in being a viable alternative approach for training and assessment for thoracentesis....
The value of pre-booked repeated thoracentesis in patients with recurrent pleural effusion is reliant on the estimation of time to next drainage. Identifying factors associated with rapid pleural flui...
We aimed to evaluate the ability of the patient and physician to predict the time to next therapeutic thoracentesis and to identify characteristics associated with rapid pleural fluid recurrence....
In a prospective, observational study, patients with recurrent unilateral pleural effusion and the physician were to predict the time to next symptom-guided therapeutic thoracentesis. Primary outcome ...
A total of 98 patients were included, 71% with malignant pleural effusion. Patients' and physicians' predictions numerically deviated by 6 days from the actual number of days to re-thoracentesis (IQR ...
Patients and physicians were equally unable to predict the time to next therapeutic thoracentesis. Daily fluid production and large effusion size were associated with increased risk of rapid pleural f...
Pleural infection is a complex condition with a considerable healthcare burden. The average hospital stay for pleural infection is 14 days. Current standard of care defaults to chest tube insertion an...
To assess the feasibility of a full-scale trial of chest tube vs TT for pleural infection in a single UK centre. The primary outcome was defined as the acceptability of randomisation to patients....
Adult patients admitted with a pleural effusion felt to be related to infection and meeting criteria for drainage (based on international guidelines) were eligible for randomisation. Participants were...
From September 2019 to June 2021, 51 patients were diagnosed with pleural infection (complex parapneumonic effusion/empyema). Eleven patients met the inclusion criteria for trial and 10 patients were ...
The ACTion trial met its pre-specified feasibility criteria for patient acceptability but other issues around feasibility of a full-scale trial remain. From the results available the hypothesis that T...

Recurrent symptomatic effusions can be durably managed with pleurodesis or placement of indwelling pleural catheters. Recent pleurodesis trials have largely relied on lung re-expansion on post-thorace...
Post-hoc analysis of a recent randomised trial....
Post-results analysis of 61 subjects at least 18 years old with symptomatic pleural effusions estimated to be at least of 0.5 L in volume allocated to manometry-guided therapeutic thoracentesis in a r...
The primary outcome was concordance of radiographic with normal terminal pleural elastance over the final 200 mL aspirated. We label this terminal elastance 'visceral pleural recoil', or the tendency ...
Post-thoracentesis chest radiograph and thoracic ultrasound indicated successful lung re-expansion in 69% and 56% of cases, respectively. Despite successful radiographic lung re-expansion, visceral pl...
Radiographic lung re-expansion by post-thoracentesis chest radiograph or thoracic ultrasound is a poor surrogate for normal terminal pleural elastance. Clinical management of patients with recurrent s...
