Abstract:
Background: Needle decompression of the chest is indicated for patients in a critical condition with rapid deterioration who have a life-threatening tension pneumothorax. Aim: To reassure UK prehospital care providers that needle decompression of the chest is not commonly required in chest trauma patients, and most can be safely managed without it. Methods: Case studies as part of a major trauma network continuous review process have revealed instances of needle decompression in the absence of tension pneumothorax. Images are presented where needle decompression was attempted in the absence of

Abstract:
Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP) is one of the major complications of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), and it can be a life-threatening condition if it progresses to tension pneumothorax. A correct initial assessment and prompt intervention will prevent a hemodynamic deterioration in tension pneumothorax. Needle decompression followed by large-bore chest tube insertion is usually required in the management of SSP. We present a case of spontaneous TB-associated tension pneumothorax in a young adult which resolved with needle decompression without chest tube insertion.

Abstract:
Tension pneumothorax can occur as a potentially life threatening complication of chest trauma. Tension pneumothorax is commonly treated with needle decompression, both the 2nd intercostal space in the midclavicular line and the 4th/5th intercostal space in the anterior axillary. A 45 years old man came to our emergency department after blunt injury of the chest presenting tension pneumothorax with unstable hemodynamic treated with needle decompression using 14 gauge (4.5 cm) cannula at 2nd intercostal space mid clavicular line, patient successfully recover and became hemodynamic stable, after

We report the case of a 23-year-old male novice diver who sustained cerebral arterial gas embolism (CAGE) during his open water certification training whilst practising a free ascent as part of the course. He developed immediate but transient neurological symptoms that had resolved on arrival to hospital. Radiological imaging of his chest showed small bilateral pneumothoraces, pneumopericardium and pneumomediastinum. In view of this he was treated with high flow normobaric oxygen rather than recompression, because of the risk of development of tension pneumothorax upon chamber decompression. T

Introduction: Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has become a pandemic that is still ongoing today. This is a new challenge for health workers in handling emergency cases. Several COVID-19 patients arrived at the hospital with severe respiratory problems. Meanwhile, other pathological conditions causing respiratory failure must also be considered, such as pneumothorax. Objective: This study aimed to examine the effective emergency procedures to treat COVID-19 cases with tension pneumothorax.

Abstract:
Background: Tension pneumothorax is a condition with frequent fatal complications. This condition is caused by a disruption in the lung - that creates a one-way valve allowing air to accumulate in the pleural space. The fatal complication is the prevention of blood returning to the right side of the heart - due intrathoracic pressure compressing the right atrium. The patient can exhibit symptoms of dyspnea, tachypnea, tracheal deviation, jugular venous distention, subcutaneous emphysema, and shock that can lead to rapid deterioration and death.

Abstract:
Resuscitation in trauma patients is a critical component of emergency medical care that can mean the difference between life and death. Trauma patients often suffer from severe injuries that can result in significant blood loss, shock, and organ damage. Prompt and effective resuscitation is essential to stabilize the patient and prevent further complications. One of the key principles of resuscitation in trauma patients is the concept of the ""Golden Hour."" This refers to the critical window of time following a traumatic injury during which prompt medical intervention can greatly improve the

Abstract:
Abstract Tension pneumothorax is an emergency that requires timely diagnosis and management to prevent mortality. Any procedure that may violate the pleura can cause a pneumothorax, such as nerve blocks and surgical procedures in that area. Others are prone to pneumothorax simply due to their anatomy and physiology, including neonates undergoing mechanical ventilation, tall adolescents, and older patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Every anesthesiologist should be familiar with tension pneumothorax, which may present after the initiation of artificial, positive pressure ventil

Abstract Tension pneumothorax is a life-threatening diagnosis that can be made accurately at the bedside with lung ultrasonography. Treatment consists of emergent needle decompression of the pleural space in the second intercostal space at the midclavicular line or in the fifth intercostal space at the anterior axillary line with a long, large-bore needle and immediate placement of a chest tube.

Abstract:
Abstract. Tension pneumothorax(tPTX) refers to air accumulation in the pleural cavity, which is a life-threatening condition. In clinical practice, the intervention is performed when tPTX is suspected. Needle thoracostomy (NT) is the primary treatment recommended by both civil and military guidelines. This is an invasive procedure and is often performed in challenging emergency settings such as the pre-hospital environment. However, it is reported that the effective rate is low. Due to the complexity of the pleural disease, there are several barriers of a successful pleural decompression, such

In addition to the delayed application of first aid, the lifesaver’s actual task performance may also be less effective than when treating injured males. This can occur, for example, when the lifesaver does not fully expose the wound (Bell et al., 2020). The Army has invested heavily in the acquisition of realistic patient manikins for training combat medicine skills.
