Abstract:Primary lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in China, and the number of new cases of lung cancer and the number of deaths from lung cancer are high in China. With the update of videoassisted thoracoscopic surgery, pneumonectomy has changed from conventional open chest surgery to traditional multi-thoracoscopic surgery, single-port thoracoscopic lobectomy and total pneumonectomy. However, the standard procedure for post-operative thoracic drainage tube is to place thoracic drainage tube at the end of all operations. Postoperative drainage tube can play a role in draining fluid and gas from the thoracic cavity to observe the situation of thoracic cavity. With the improvement of surgical safety, people pay more and more attention to the recovery time and the withdrawal time of the patients after operation. The change from 28F to 16F tube, from double thoracic drainage tube to single thoracic drainage number, is very helpful for the postoperative rehabilitation and early out of patients. It found that the tunnel type thoracic drainage tube after single-port pulmonary lobectomy has a relatively better effect on the timing and rehabilitation of the patient. Whether the tunnel type thoracic drainage tube is suitable for all sensory patients after single-port pulmonary lobectomy is a further study. Finally, with the update of the equipment and the progress of post-operative nursing, the time of announcement and the effect of rehabilitation will be improved.
