what is meant by "better stay high than low" in the context of the 4th and 5th intercostal space ?

I just wanted to pop in and say, as a nursing student, that I love your videos. I love seeing where our education and training overlaps and getting little glimpses into physician decision making. As a patient that had a chest tube placed for a pneumo this summer I would like to place extra emphasis on how much this hurts to have placed, even with a 14 fr pigtail rather than a 32 straight. The lidocaine helped with the incision but passing the tube was awful, but noting compared to the pain of my lung encountering and moving the tube inside my pleural cavity - 100/10 pain. Something I will always be aware of for my patients from my personal experience.

Smaller tubes are less likely to irritate the intercostal nerves running between ribs after tube is in place. Tubes will still hit nerves but not as badly with like a 28f

Doesn’t data support placing smaller tubes now 28-32Fr in traumas and not these 36-40Fr tubes?

@T: If you place a J drain after a laperotmy on a pt who’s had endometriosis and multiple laps. You go to remove drain. It brakes and Retracts into patient. What would you do?

Remember to clam the proximal end IMMEDIATELY you enter the plural space. if not, you will have blood or copious pleural fluid on the flow

Have had a resident put a right chest tube straight into the liver. Not a pretty situation.

Hi! Level 1 trauma patient back in 2013 that had to have a chest tube. 🙋🏼‍♀️Conscious the entire time & no time for anesthesia during this. I can still vividly remember everything about my chest tube placement. Specifically: 1. The way I could literally feel his fingers scissoring its way into my chest cavity, to separate the rib from the other stuff you mentioned. 2. As his fingers were scissoring thru, I kept saying ‘Higher! Higher! And I knew instantly when he got to the spot where the chest tube needed to be bc it felt like this enormous bubble inside that needed popped. That is the best way I can describe it. So this video was cool to stumble across on my FYP bc I could totally relate to & understood everything you were explaining & I’m not even a med student. It was absolutely the best breath of my life & I’ll never forget that breath as long as I live! To add to that, I know this may sound weird to say bc nothing is “cool” about being a trauma patient - but it was the coolest feeling to internally feel all of that. I’ve asked several trauma therapist why I feel that way about that particular part of my near fatality, and the best understanding that I could relate to & that made the most sense was that it felt rejuvenating- but amp’d up on steroids x 100, if that makes sense. To feel your body slowly losing O2, doing that fish out of water breathing (fully conscious) & literally suffocating internally is the scariest thing to ever experience IMO. But, then to go from death to life - in an instant - it was like a revival! It was the scariest, weirdest, coolest, most exilerating thing I’ve ever experienced. And with zero pain- at that time. People don’t really understand what true shock does to the body and what it can endure while in shock. I know yall don’t get told this enough - but yall are the real hero’s of the world. And I’m eternally grateful for those like you. 🤗
