Abstract:

Purpose: It is frequently found in Pnömotoraksa intensive care units (YBUs). Traumatic pnömotoraks causes may occur after processes such as iatrogenic pnömotoraks plant venous catheterization, positive pressure mechanical ventilation and torasenthesis, while the traumatic pnömotoraks causes may occur, often with coronary and penetrating trauma. Method: In this study, the information of a total of 69 patients followed and treated by diagnosis of pnömotoraks between 01.01.2013 and 01.01.2015. The patient’s age, gender, body mass index and pnömotoraks cause, side, time of placement of the chest tube, total stay time of the chest tube, and time of stay of the YBU were assessed in terms of records. Patients with pneumotorax were studied as the traumatic pneumotorax group (Group T) and the Iatrogenic pneumotorax group according to their ethology. The findings: the pnömotoraks incidence was detected at 2.43% and all of the incidents were acquired pnömotoraks. 57/69 of the cases were traumatic, and according to the iatrogenic groups, most were bilateral developed, the diagnosis was used to computate the thorax tomography, and the frequency of thorax synthesis was higher. In the group T, the chest tube was placed faster. The mechanical ventilation time and the time of stay in the YBU were shorter in the group T. The result: Pnömotoraks is one of the main emergency cases observed in patients under the BSE. Although rare, it should be diagnosed early. Our study confirms that the pnomotoraks seen in the YBU is always acquired and most of them are traumatic. The time of mechanical ventilation in the traumatic pnömotoraks group and the time of stay in the YBU are shorter than in the iatrogenic pnömotoraks group.
