Pleural effusion is one of the most common diseases of Respiratory System. Chest drainage with the central venous catheter( CVT) in pleural cavity is the most commonly used method in clinical. However, thoracic drainage devices matching with the central venous catheter are lack in health care market. Selfmade simple closed thoracic drainage devices have many shortcomings in clinical application, Which is complex in structure, inconvenient to operate, poor comfort, easy to reflux and others. How to reduc the clinical workload, improve comfort, reduce complications caused by gas-liquid reflux is an important problem that need to be addressed in clinical.Therefore, we developed a modified disposable closed thoracic drainage bag(Patent No.:ZL 200920255142.7)to meet clinical needs. It has improved significantly in the safety and practicability than Other drainage devices.Objective:Pleural effusion of the observation group was drained with disposable closed thoracic drainage bag. And to evaluate its safety and practicality by compared with selfmade water-sealed drainage bottle in order to supply fundamental basis for clinical application.Methods: In this experiment, we selected 100 patients with malignant pleural effusion, hospitalized for treatment in the Department Respiratory Medicine (2009.10~2010.12). 68 patients were male and 32 were female; Aged 28 to 78 years, mean age (59.1±12.5) years; KPS score 50 to 90, the average score (73.8±11.4); Pneumothorax, chest infection, leakage and non-malignant pleural effusion were ruled out.They were randomly divided into two groups of the observation group and control group (50 cases in each group) according to time of hospitalization.Observation group: To be treated by using the central venous catheter (CVT) and disposable closed thoracic drainage bag. To keep it aseptic in the whole process. The first time,drainage was not mor than 1000 ml;rate of 50ml/min; The second time,pleural effusion was drained completely as much as possible, and required patients to change position after the intrapleural instillation of drugs (PDD 40mg + IL-Ⅱ200 million units) in order to drugs can be distributed throughout uniformly in the pleural cavity and retained for 48 hours, then pleural effusion would be drained completely as much as possible again. Drain tube could be pull out if drainage was less than 50ml for 24 hours and confirmed by the B-mode ultrasound. If drainage was more than 50ml for 24 hours ,drugs would be instilled again, whether the intrapleural instillation of drugs (PDD 40mg + IL-Ⅱ200 million units) needed to be repeated according to the drainage , the amount of PDD was not more than 160mg,then valuated.Control group: To be treated by using the central venous catheter (CVT) and selfmade water-sealed drainage bottle closed thoracic drainage. To keep it aseptic in the whole process.Drainage, speed, treatment of the two groups was the same.Results:1.The comparison of the incidence of pneumothorax :The observation group included 50 goats,chest drainage for 200 times,the cases of pneumothorax were 7, the occurence rate was 3.5%; in the control group included 50goats, chest drainage for 300 times, the cases of pneumothorax were 36, the occurence rate was 12%.
