Nurse Chest Tube Management

If you recently learned about chest tubes in the classroom and are wondering how to manage them... THIS VIDEO WILL HOPEFULLY CLARIFY A LOT FOR YOU.

In this video I go through the following:
- Determining the need for a chest tube
- Assessing a pt with a CT
- Managing the CT
- Monitoring drainage
- Nursing Considerations
- Chest tube removal

As always this video is an additional learning resource and should never be used as a substitute to your textbook.
