胸腔急癥氣胸

1、胸腔急癥氣胸診斷 : i.理學檢查: 患側的呼吸音減弱，心音偏向對側。有時頸部有捻 發(fā)音(crepitus)。 ii.胸部X光: 患側呈現高透光性，而且沒有支氣管的顯影。旁邊 或甚至對側的肺葉萎陷?？v隔及心臟向對側偏移。 治療 : 無癥狀或僅有輕微的呼吸窘迫，可在病房作嚴密的看護，這種 單純性氣胸有三分之二在五至七天內自愈而無須手術。 若有嚴重的呼吸困難及高張性氣胸，則應立即采取行動。以靜 脈注射用之套管針，由前胸第二肋間或腋窩中線第五或第六 肋間插入，接上水下引流瓶，先解除呼吸困難。然后再改用 胸管插入，等肺完全擴張沒漏氣后24-48小時再拔除。 手術(肺氣泡切除術、肋膜沾粘術) Spont
