Trial of Antiseptic Irrigation for Pleural Infection

Pleural antiseptic irrigation (PAI) is used in conjunction with open drainage for treating adults with chronic post-thoracotomy empyema. The antiseptic povidone-iodine can safely be instilled into the pleural cavity for the purpose of pleurodesis and has recently been described for pleural irrigation in the acute management of paediatric pleural infection …

Pleural Irrigation With Normal Saline Versus Intrapleural Fibrinolytic

Parapneumonic effusions caused by an infection of the pleural membranes occur in 40-57% of cases of pneumonia. A variable percentage (10-20%) of parapneumonic effusions progresses to empyema (pus) and/or abscess formation (encapsulation). Pleural infection is associated with significant morbidity and mortality which may be as high as 20-35% in immunocompromised …

Phase II Trial of Radical Pleurectomy With or Without Intraoperative PDT for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

A randomized Phase II trial to test whether the addition of intraoperative Photofrin-mediated photodynamic therapy to radical pleurectomy and post-operative chemo.improves OS in the treatment of patients with epithelioid MPM. Subjects assigned to the PDT arm will be given the photosensitizer prior to surgery . All subjects will receive maximal …

Diagnosis and Classification of Pleural Diseases Using Ultrasound Channel Data

Background The Pleura is a double-layered membrane that surrounds the lungs. Pathological processes that involve the Pleura are called "Pleural diseases". Among them are included Pneumothorax (Air the chest cavity), Pleural effusions, and tumor formation. Ultrasound imaging of the Pleura to detect and assess pleural diseases has been proven as …
