We aimed to identify research on the psychosocial impact of Indwelling Pleural Catheters (IPC); report on the extent, range, and nature of studies; and summarize the findings. A secondary aim was to capture reports on patient support needs and/or self-management of IPC. A systematic literature search was undertaken, with evidence synthesis planned if sufficient literature was identified. We searched ten databases available through the United Kingdom National Health Service Knowledge and Library Hub: the British Nursing Index (BNI), Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Cochrane, Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), Exerpta Medica Care (Emcare), E-thesis Online Service (EThOS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline), National Grey Literature Collection, Psychological Information Database (PsycInfo), and PubMed...

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility and safety of artificial pneumothorax induction for percutaneous procedures using the liver-directed approach and Seldinger's technique. Materials and methods The data of 25 consecutive patients who underwent percutaneous procedures after inducing artificial pneumothorax were reviewed retrospectively. The liver surface was punctured with an 18-gauge indwelling needle via the intercostal space in the inferior thoracic cavity under ultrasound guidance, avoiding the lung parenchyma and leaving the catheter in place...

INTRODUCTION: Malignant pleural effusions are common in advanced malignancy and associated with overall poor survival. The presence of sarcopenia (decreased muscle mass) is associated with poor outcomes in numerous disease states, however, its relationship to malignant pleural disease has not been defined. We sought to understand if there was an association between decreased survival and decreased muscle mass in patients with malignant pleural effusion. METHODS: Patients with malignant pleural disease undergoing indwelling tunneled pleural catheter placement were retrospectively reviewed...

BACKGROUND: Pleural disease (PD), particularly malignant pleural effusion (MPE), is a common cause of hospital admission and its prevalence is rising worldwide. Recent advances in diagnostic and therapeutic options, such as Indwelling Pleural Catheters (IPCs), have simplified PD treatment, allowing an effective outpatients management. Therefore, dedicated pleural services can improve PD care, guaranteeing specialized management and optimizing time and cost. We aimed to provide an overview on MPE management in Italy, mainly focused on distribution and characteristics of pleural services and IPCs use...

PURPOSE: The search for an inexpensive agent for chemical pleurodesis in malignant pleural effusion (MPE) continues. We aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of iodopovidone versus doxycycline for pleurodesis in MPE. METHODS: We randomized consecutive subjects with recurrent symptomatic MPE (1:1) to undergo pleurodesis with either doxycycline or iodopovidone administered through an intercostal tube. The primary outcome was the success rate of pleurodesis at 30 days...

Background and Objectives : The novel double-pigtail catheter (DPC) has an additional pigtail coiling at the mid-shaft with multiple centripetal side holes. The present study aimed to investigate the advantages and efficacy of DPC in overcoming the complications of conventional single-pigtail catheters (SPC) used to drain pleural effusion. Materials and Methods : Between July 2018 and December 2019, 382 pleural effusion drainage procedures were reviewed retrospectively (DPC, n = 156; SPC without multiple side holes, n = 110; SPC with multiple side holes (SPC + M), n = 116)...

INTRODUCTION: The safety and efficacy of indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) in lung allograft recipients is under-reported. METHODS: We performed a multicenter, retrospective analysis between 1/1/2010 and 6/1/2022 of consecutive IPCs placed in lung transplant recipients. Outcomes included incidence of infectious and non-infectious complications and rate of auto-pleurodesis. RESULTS: Seventy-one IPCs placed in 61 lung transplant patients at eight centers were included...

Background: The presence of pleural effusions and ascites in patients is often considered a marker of illness severity and a poor prognostic indicator. This study aims to compare inpatient and outpatient costs of alternative invasive treatments for ascites and pleural effusions. Methods: The retrospective single-institution study included inpatient cases treated for pleural effusion (J90 and J91) or ascites (R18) at the University Hospital Cologne (UHC) in Germany between January 01, 2020, and December 31, 2021...

BACKGROUND: Malignant and nonmalignant pleural effusions (NMPEs) such as those due to hepatic hydrothorax have been successfully treated with an indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) with a low complication rate. There is no literature on the utility or safety of this treatment modality for NMPE post lung resection. We aimed to assess the utility of IPC for recurrent symptomatic NMPE secondary to post lung resection in lung cancer patients over a period of 4 years. METHODS: Patients who underwent lobectomy or segmentectomy as part of the treatment plan for lung cancer between January 2019 and June 2022 were identified, these patients were screened for post-surgical pleural effusion...

The characteristics of patients with pleural amyloidosis (PA) are poorly known. A systematic review was performed of studies reporting clinical findings, pleural fluid (PF) characteristics, and the most effective treatment of PA. Case descriptions and retrospective studies were included. The review included 95 studies with a total sample of 196 patients. The mean age was 63 years, male/female ratio was 1.6:1, and 91.9% of patients were >50 years. The most common symptom was dyspnea (88 patients). PF was generally serious (63%), predominantly lymphocytic, and with the biochemical characteristics of transudates (43...

The incidence of pleural disease is increasing, and pleural medicine is increasingly recognised as a subspecialty within respiratory medicine. This often requires additional training time. Once underresearched, the last decade has seen an explosion in evidence related to the management of pleural disease. One of the cornerstones of pleural effusion management is the insertion of an indwelling pleural catheter. This allows patient-centred outpatient management and now has a robust evidence base. This article summarises evidence as well serves as a practical guide to the management of any complications related to an indwelling pleural catheter that might present on an acute take...

Heart failure (HF) and cirrhosis are frequently associated with pleural effusions (PEs). Despite their apparently benign nature, both HF-related effusions and hepatic hydrothorax (HH) have poor prognosis because they represent an advanced stage of the disease. Optimization of medical therapy in these two entities involve not only the use of diuretics, but also other pharmacological therapies. For instance, all HF patients with reduced or mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction can benefit from angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors, beta blockers, mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors...

Multiple randomized clinical trials have established the advantages of indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) in the management of malignant pleural effusions, resulting in its widespread adoption in clinical practice. Complications can occur with IPC use and must be recognized and managed effectively. This review provides a comprehensive overview of IPC complications and their best care. Pain postinsertion or during drainage of IPC is easily manageable and must be distinguished from tumor-related chest wall pain...

INTRODUCTION: Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is common, with 50 000 new cases per year in the UK. MPE causes disabling breathlessness and indicates advanced disease with a poor prognosis. Treatment approaches focus on symptom relief and optimising quality of life (QoL). Patients who newly present with MPE commonly require procedural intervention for both diagnosis and therapeutic benefit.Thoracoscopic pleural biopsies are highly sensitive in diagnosing pleural malignancy. Talc poudrage may be delivered at thoracoscopy (TTP) to prevent effusion recurrence by effecting pleurodesis...
