DOI: 10.1002/jum.14437
Abstract: Tension pneumothorax is a life‐threatening condition that frequently occurs in the setting of cardiopulmonary resuscitation as a result of positive pressure ventilation and chest compressions. Developing crepitus due to subcutaneous air can severely limit pleural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10140-018-1588-9
Abstract: IntroductionPatients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) rarely presented with radiological signs of tension pneumothorax on their presenting chest X-ray. Even though, those patients may not develop the hemodynamic instability that is seen in tension pneumothorax.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11748-020-01471-7
Abstract: Tension pneumothorax is a common cause of mortality in trauma. Tension pneumothorax is the confinement of respired gases within the pleural cavity at increasing pressure resulting in hemodynamic collapse. Decompression is crucial in management. Emergency… read more here.

DOI: 10.1101/2022.07.07.22277305
Abstract: Importance: Early detection of pneumothorax, most often on chest radiograph (CXR), can help determine need for emergent clinical intervention. The ability to accurately detect and rapidly triage pneumothorax with an artificial intelligence (AI) model could… read more here.
