St Emlyn´s JC - By Simon Carley - February 10, 2020
..."This month we have a paper in the NEJM that may help answer that question. It’s received quite a bit of interest in the #FOAMed world already, but as it’s directly relevant to our day to day practice it’s worth a look from the St Emlyn’s team.
You can read the abstract of the NEJM paper below, but as we always say PLEASE read the full paper yourself and make up your own mind before changing practice...
The bottom line
Conservative management of moderate and large spontaneous pneumothoraces is an option, but we will wait for changes to the BTS guidelines before changing our regular practice."
