DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000028537
Abstract: Abstract Chemical pleurodesis is performed in pneumothorax patients to treat nonresolving air leakage or prevent recurrence. However, factors that might predict the need for chemical pleurodesis remain unknown. Therefore, this study investigated predictive factors for… read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000529309
Abstract: Background: A well-recognized therapy to improve the symptoms of patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE), indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) can also achieve spontaneous pleurodesis. Chemical pleurodesis is associated with a significant pro-coagulation and fibrinolytic environment.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1164/rccm.201704-0809oc
Abstract: Rationale: Patients with malignant pleural effusion experience breathlessness, which is treated by drainage and pleurodesis. Incomplete drainage results in residual dyspnea and pleurodesis failure. Intrapleural fibrinolytics lyse septations within pleural fluid, improving drainage. Objectives: To… read more here.
