Outpatient Management of Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax: Pigtail Catheter With Unidirectional Valve vs. Exsufflation, Randomized Prospective Study (PNEUM-AMBU)

September 20, 2024 updated by: Rennes University Hospital
The management of spontaneous large pneumothorax is not consensual. The current management involves the establishment of a Fuhrman catheter and an outpatient monitoring in pneumology consultation. Another alternative is widespread: simple exsufflation. However, no study has looked at the direct prospective comparison of these 2 treatments.
