Lesson Summary. Pneumothorax is a collapsed lung due to gas in the pleural space of the chest. It can be open (air leaking in from outside via puncture) or closed (chest wall intact). The three major types of pneumothorax are: Spontaneous pneumothorax, which occurs suddenly or for no distinguishable reason.
1 If the chest tube comes with a trocar, insert the trocar now but not so far that it protrudes from the end. 2  This stiffens the tube and eases correct placement. 3  Disconnect temporarily from positive pressure ventilation so that the lung collapses. 4  Reconnect the ET tube as soon as the tube is in position.
