- Title:
- Chest tube monitor
- Description:
- Water seal drainage system. Bubbling within the air leak chamber (*) should cease within 24 h. If an air leak has already sealed, bubbling will be seen only with cough or Valsalva. Continuous bubbling indicates a large air leak. A cardinal sign of a blocked thoracic tube is failure of the fluid column within the tube to fluctuate with coughing or respiration
