|
|
There have been many therapeutic methods for spontaneous pneumothorax. Medical treatments include bed rest and aspiration and surgical treatme-nts include closed drainage and open thoracotomy. Twenty four cases of spontaneous pneumothorax in "the absence of the underlying pulmonary disease admitted to Severance Hospital from January 1796 to Sepetember 1977 were reviewed.
The present study was undertaken to investigate
the relationship among high-oxygen therapy, aspiration-high oxygen therapy and closed drainageThe mean durations of the full expansion of pneumothorax were 9.3 days in high oxygen therapy group, 7.1 days in aspiration-high oxygen therapy group and 8 days in closed. drainage group.
High oxygen therapy and aspiration-high oxygentherapy were as good as closed drainage in the s-o pntaneous pneumothorax without underlyng pulmonary disease.
