- PNEUMOTHORAX vs TENSION PNEUMOTHORAX
In this video, I'll explain what a pneumothorax a tension pneumothorax are, and what you need to know about them for nursing school.
We'll talk about what pneumothorax and tension pneumothorax means, the difference between the two, the different types of pneumothorax, and I'll give you a cool memory trick to help you remember them.
Here's a breakdown of what we'll talk about:
A pneumothorax means that there is a hole into the pleural space (surrounding the lungs), letting air accumulate around the lung, and causing the lung to collapse. In a pneumothorax, air can move in and out of the pleural space.
There are 2 types of a pneumothorax:
- Open pneumothorax: there is a wound on the outside of the body that caused the hole in the pleural space. And open pneumothorax can happen with things like stab wounds or other trauma.
- Closed pneumothorax: there is no wound on the outside of the body, and the hole into the pleural space is internal. A closed pneumothorax can happen during a rib fracture, or even spontaneously.
A tension pneumothorax is similar to a pneumothorax, where there is a hole in the pleural space and air accumulates around the lung, causing the lung to collapse. But during a tension pneumothorax, air CANNOT escape the pleural space. Instead it gets trapped inside, putting immense pressure on the lungs, heart and blood vessels.
A tension pneumothorax is a life threatening emergency, and must be treated immediately.

I am in my medical school but have to admit that your type of nurses are more important than doctors Thank u 🖤
Thank you! It is a team effort for sure!!!!
@@NursingSOS your very welcome heading to more videos from u greetings 🖤
I study nursing and medical science for fun. I’ve always wanted to be a nurse, but because I have a form of autism and I hate hospitals, and some of my family makes fun of my decision to go to nursing school because they think firefighter jobs are better (I’m not currently in school for nursing, but I really want to!). I’ve felt discouraged since, but I still love medical science. Thanks for explaining it clearly, and I love your enthusiasm!🫁🫀🩺👩🏼⚕️
Agent 47, go for your goals!!! You will do AMAZING things, and each day intentionally decide to do better, be stronger, and take action towards your goal! You've got this, friend! 😊

@@NursingSOS thank you so much ❤
Hello, is tracheal shift also observed in open and closed pneumothorax?
Yes, tracheal deviation will happen in both. Thanks for being here, ROBERT BRYAN YEE!
Thanks haha, currently in PA school.
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Fernando Hernandez! You will do GREAT! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊
Can you explain why the air can't get out of the plural space during a tension pneumo? I understand that the opening acts as a one-way valve but I don't understand why it happens during a tension pneumo and not a regular pneumo.
Great questions, Ahava Bdner! With a tension pneumo, like you said it creates a one way valve where the air can go in, but cannot escape causing the lung to collapse, which is different than a pneumothorax. To remove the air from the pleural space with a needle to decompress the area. I hope that helps, Thank you for being here😊
LOOOOOVE:)

Thanks for the video! Really helps with my EMS classes. For anyone else studying, tension pneumothorax is one reason we'd see JVD in a trauma case (the other being cardiac tamponade).
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, Ryan B! You will do GREAT! Thank you for being here, your support means the world to us. 😊
Ryan you know s*** about s***. Go do more ride-alongs instead of just the basic prerequisites
You're on CZcams f****** around when you could be doing ride-alongs, don't come up with any b******* response either. Get out and get experience
Could you please explain why the trachea shifts to the unaffected side?
Jenaan Mahmoud, great question! When there is a tension pneumothorax the pressure in the chest cavity so the trachea is pulled to the unaffected side. I hope that helps clarify it for you. :)
@@NursingSOS that was helpful thank you very much💙
@Jenaan Mahmoud Of course! So glad you found it helpful! Thanks for being here! :) Have a fantastic day!
Love
LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I have a question madam iam suffering from phnemothrox now last 2month tube is insert in my lungs and air is leaked always plz give me best suggestions
We cannot give out medical advice as our resources are geared towards helping nursing students throughout nursing school! Thanks for being here, Ricky Bagga!
When you inhale, air leaves the plural space (lungs increase volume). When you exhale, air enters plural space (lung volume gets smaller)... Is that right?
Kieran Broadfield, when you inhale air moves into the pleural space and when you exhale air moves out of the pleural space. Hope that helps to clarify it! :)
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So happy to hear this video was helpful for you, maitham hadi! 😊 We LOVE hearing how our resources helped you feel more confident in your knowledge! Hope you have a fantastic day, maitham hadi. 😀
how do you do that?
Just checking to clarify what you are asking for help with?!
So a closed pneumothorax is a tension pneumothorax and a open pneumothorax is pretty much a sucking chest wound?
Jay Allen, great question. So a closed pneumothorax is classified as something where the chest wall still remains intact to the outside environment. An open pneumothorax is where it is open to the outside environment. Yes, a tension pneumo is a closed one, and a sucking chest wound is an open one. Hope this helps. Thanks, friend! Have a fantastic day! :)
❤️🤗
Thanks for letting us know you loved this video, Jackie Juarez! Your support means the world to us. Thank you for being here😊
How do doctors know that your lungs can heal? I mean they're inside your chest it is not like they can see them healing
They have lots of cool scans and tests to help them determine what's going on. :)
One more question ... can a person who has a pneumothorax hold his breath for 1 minute :30 seconds?
Huh...I've never thought about that before. I honestly don't know...
I love u
Thank you for being here, @linawa9698! 😊
ummm what about hyporesonant or hyperresonant
Yes you are right that that might be present too, Brandon Sula. Thanks for being here, friend!

Yeah ,but absent lung . Why did you didn't mention it?
Thanks for your feedback, Christian Avina! We try to focus on the main topics that are covered in nursing courses and NCLEX! We will add that to the list for future videos:)
I was stabbed 6 months ago and had one of those cause of a punctured lung and went through surgeries and chest tubes but now i feel pretty good .
Oh no! I'm sorry to hear about that. I'm glad you're feeling better now!
@@NursingSOS well thanks... i feel discomfort from time to time but im doing good now , i do deep breathing exercises tho
I'm glad to hear you're doing better!
