Apr 6, 2024

When it comes to emergency medical situations like tension pneumothorax, prompt and effective treatment is crucial. Neumark Surgery delivers top-notch care in handling such cases with utmost expertise and precision.

Tension Pneumothorax: Understanding the Condition

A tension pneumothorax is a life-threatening condition characterized by the accumulation of air in the pleural space, leading to lung collapse and increasing pressure on vital structures within the chest cavity.

Effective Treatment Approach

At Neumark Surgery, our team of highly skilled and experienced doctors, medical centers, and plastic surgeons work collaboratively to provide swift and efficient treatment for tension pneumothorax. The treatment approach typically involves:

  • Immediate Decompression: The priority is to promptly decompress the affected lung to alleviate pressure and restore normal lung function.
  • Thoracostomy: A chest tube may be inserted to drain the accumulated air and prevent further complications.
  • Oxygen Therapy: Supplemental oxygen is administered to improve oxygenation and support respiratory function.
