A chest tube insertion involves the surgical placement of a hollow, flexible drainage tube into the chest. 2, record 5, English, - chest%20tube%20insertion
Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Chest tube insertions are usually performed as an emergency procedure. Chest tubes are used to treat conditions that can cause the lung to collapse, which occurs because blood or air in the pleural space can hamper the ability of a patient to breath. There are four common conditions that can require surgical chest tube insertion, including : pneumothorax(air leak from the lung into the chest) ;hemothorax(bleeding into the chest) ;empyema(lung abscess or pus in the chest) ;pneumothorax or hemothorax after surgery or from trauma to the chest. 5, record 5, English, - chest%20tube%20insertion
Record number: 5, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Chest tube thoracostomy is done to drain fluid, blood, or air from the space around the lungs. Some diseases, such as pneumonia and cancer, can cause an excess amount of fluid or blood to build up in the space around the lungs (called a pleural effusion). Also, some severe injuries of the chest wall can cause bleeding around the lungs. Sometimes, the lung can be accidentally punctured allowing air to gather outside the lung, causing its collapse (called a pneumothorax). Chest tube thoracostomy (commonly referred to as "putting in a chest tube") involves placing a hollow plastic tube between the ribs and into the chest to drain fluid or air from around the lungs. The tube is often hooked up to a suction machine to help with drainage. The tube remains in the chest until all or most of the air or fluid has drained out, usually a few days. Occasionally special medicines are given through a chest tube. [...] 4, record 5, English, - chest%20tube%20insertion

Tube thoracostomy is insertion of a tube into the pleural space. It is used to drain air or fluid from the chest (eg, for large or recurrent effusion refractory to thoracentesis, pneumothorax, complicated parapneumonic effusions, empyema, and hemothorax) and to perform pleurodesis or fibrinolytic adhesiolysis. 6, record 5, English, - chest%20tube%20insertion

A well log of the wall-contact log type that measures radioactivity induced by neutron-neutron reactions. Fast neutrons of several MeV energy, emitted by a source in the sonde, may be slowed and backscattered as epithermal neutrons(0. 4 to 100 ev) by collisions with hydrogen nuclei. Epithermal-neutron abundance is interpreted by assuming a constant lithology, usually limestone, that produces a continuous curve in porosity units. The epithermal-neutron log is largely insensitive to the differences in chlorinity of formation water that may hamper the interpretation of the thermal-neutron log and neutron-gamma log. 2, record 15, English, - epithermal%2Dneutron%20log
