What is The indication for using Heimlich valve is for drainage of: and explain in detail?
Most patients with significant pneumothoraces (> 30%) require placement of a closed-chest catheter (8-20F) for acceptable reexpansion. This catheter then can be placed either to underwater suction drainage or to a Heimlich (one-way) valve. If a Heimlich valve maintains full expansion, the patient may be treated as an outpatient; however, if a Heimlich valve fails to reexpand the lung fully or if the patient's condition is not optimal, admission to hospital and underwater chest tube suction drainage is required.
