Flashback to November 2022 📋 The goal of pleural irrigation "is to dilute and remove bacteria, cytokines, inflammatory cells, and pro-fibrinogenic coagulation factors. The mechanical process of irrigation increases pleural fluid drainage by reducing stasis and organization of intrapleural contents." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3617… Simple solutions are often most effective. #TheSolutionIsCLR #ThoracicIrrigation

Centers across the US are standardizing pleural collection management — across Trauma Surgery, Pulmonology, Thoracic Surgery, and beyond. Protocolized #ThoracicIrrigation aims to improve drainage, reduce the need for additional procedures, and shorten hospital stays. Interested in how centers are doing it?

Why is #ThoracicIrrigation gaining traction in hospitals across the country? Because preventing retained HTX is a lot easier than treating it. #TheSolutionisCLR #DontWaitIrrigate

Retained HTX can often be tracked back to a missed opportunity to prevent the complication. #ThoracicIrrigation at the time of chest tube placement is a simple, proactive step. #DontWaitIrrigate #TheSolutionisCLR

CLR is improving hemothorax care at @uchicagosurgery & @advocatehealth — and last week's Chicago Committee on Trauma meeting brought surgeons from @LoyolaSurgery, @NMSurgery & @CCHTrauma into the conversation too. Thanks for the opportunity, @ChicagoCOT! More Chicagoland centers on the way. #ThoracicIrrigation #TheSolutionIsCLR
