Standard pleural interventions are not high-risk aerosol generating procedures

2021-04-19

Abstract excerpt

No evidence exists regarding the risk of aerosolisation from pleural procedures. This study used two discrete methodologies, in an environment with no background aerosol interference, to measure aerosol generation from 10 different pleural procedures (3 medical thoracoscopies, 3 indwelling pleural catheter insertions, 1 therapeutic thoracentesis, and 3 indwelling pleural catheter removals). The measurements indica...
