Summary

The goal of this prospective randomized controlled trial is to investigate the clinical effects of autologous blood pleurodesis in the treatment of pulmonary air leaks on the first postoperative day following VATS pulmonary resections. Patients will through web-based randomization be randomly assigned into intrapleural instillation of autologous blood (intervention) or standard treatment with ordinary chest drainage (control).

Conditions

  • Postoperative Air Leak

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Pleural injection of autologous blood

120 ml autologous blood will be drawn from simple venous puncture and immediately injected through the drain into the pleural cavity followed by flushing with 50ml of saline.
