Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical values of the modified thoracic drainage devices that were applied in treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax patients who underwent single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Methods Clinical data of 82 primary spontaneous pneumothorax patients who underwent single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic lung wedge resection and pleurodesis from January 1st, 2015 to August 31st, 2016 was analyzed retrospectively. These patients, according to the thoracic drainage devices, were divided into traditional group (Group A, n = 42) or modified group (Group B, n = 40). These statistical data, including duration of thoracic drainage, lengths of hospital stay, duration of using antibiotic, amounts of pleural drainage, scales of pain, and complications of the two groups of patients in postoperative stage, were compared. Results There was no significant differences (P > 0.05) in volumes of thoracic drainage while there were significant differences (P < 0.05) in duration of thoracic drainage, lengths of hospital stay, duration of using antibiotic, scales of pain, and complications in postoperative stage between the two groups. And patients in group B had shorter time of thoracic drainage, hospital stay, and using antibiotic, lower scales of pain and rates of complications when compared with group A. Conclusion There are some clinical values of application of modified thoracic drainage devices in treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax underwent single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, because of it could give the patients fast recovery and made the operations simpler.
