Method and system for detecting pneumothorax

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a pneumothorax detection method performed by a computing device. The method may comprise obtaining predicted pneumothorax information, predicted tube information, and a predicted spinal baseline with respect to an input image from a trained pneumothorax prediction model; determining at least one pneumothorax representative position for the predicted pneumothorax information and at least one tube representative position for the predicted tube information, in a prediction image in which the predicted pneumothorax information and the predicted tube information are displayed; dividing the prediction image into a first region and a second region by the predicted spinal baseline; and determining a region in which the at least one pneumothorax representative position and the at least one tube representative position exist among the first region and the second region.

Portable chest tube pressure and CO2 monitor

Systems and methods can be used improve the efficacy of tube thoracostomy. For example, this document provides devices and methods for confirming the proper placement of a chest tube within the pleural space.

Method and device for simultaneously documenting and treating tension pneumothorax and/or hemothorax

A method and device are provided for simultaneously or near-simultaneously diagnosing and treating tension pneumothorax and/or hemothoraxA Veress-type needle portion includes a hollow needle for puncturing the chest wall over a blunt hollow probe biased by one or more springs to extend distally into the pleural cavity. Openings in the blunt hollow probe connect via a pathway to an automatic check valve, which permits the flow of air and/or fluid only in a proximal direction. Pressure from within the pleural cavity is transmitted to the interior surface of a pressure documenter. If pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is present in the pleural cavity, the pressure documenter will be automatically urged proximally to simultaneously allow air and/or fluid to escape from the pleural space through the device, thus treating the tension pneumothorax and/or hemothorax, as well as providing a stable indicator to positively document the diagnosis of increased pressure.
