Chest tube is a flexible plastic tube used to discharge secretion in the cavity between the lungs and chest named pleural cavity. Normally, there is a small amount of fluid in the cavity between the lungs and chest; This fluid helps the movement of lungs during breathing without abrasion. Entrance of bit of air, blood or pus because injury in the pleural cavity can prevent the lungs from fully opening. Full or partial collapse of the lungs makes breathing difficult and can lead to respiratory arrest; putting chest tube in the pleural cavity causes the discharge of secretion and helps patients comfort. Chest Electro-Drainage mobile system is designed to drain air, blood, water and pus accumulated in the space between the visceral and parietal pleural cavity. Based on low volume and weight, this system can be used to treat Pneumothorax, Hemothorax and Hydrothorax and so forth, both in the emergency state and treatment centers. Obviously, this system will be an action to reduce deaths especially in the case of Pneumothorax.
胸管是一种柔性塑料管，用于排出肺与胸之间名为胸膜腔的腔内分泌物。正常情况下，肺与胸之间的腔内有少量液体；这种液体有助于肺在呼吸时运动而无摩擦。由于胸膜腔受伤导致少量空气、血液或脓液进入会阻止肺完全张开。肺的完全或部分塌陷会使呼吸困难并可能导致呼吸骤停；将胸管置于胸膜腔内可排出分泌物并帮助患者缓解不适。胸电引流移动系统旨在排出积聚在内脏胸膜腔和壁层胸膜腔之间空间的空气、血液、水和脓液。基于其小体积和轻重量，该系统可用于治疗气胸、血胸和胸腔积液等，无论是在紧急状态还是治疗中心。显然，该系统将是一项减少死亡的举措，尤其是在气胸的情况下。
