Description

A size 28 chest tube is a flexible, sterile tube with an outer diameter of approximately 9.3 millimeters, used to drain air, fluid, or pus from the pleural space. It is commonly used in adults for conditions such as pneumothorax, hemothorax, pleural effusion, and postoperative thoracic drainage. The tube is inserted through a small incision in the chest wall and connected to a drainage system, allowing for continuous evacuation of air or fluid to facilitate lung re-expansion. The size 28 chest tube provides substantial drainage capacity while ensuring patient comfort and effective management of thoracic conditions.
