氣管偏移(Tracheal deviation)是張力性氣胸(Tension pneumothorax)的晚期徵兆,表示胸內壓急劇升高並造成縱隔移位,將壓迫大血管導致心輸出量銳減及休克。這是危急生命的情況,需立即處理。
Tracheal deviation toward the unaffected side is a critical sign of tension pneumothorax, indicating a life-threatening mediastinal shift that compresses major vessels and reduces cardiac output. This requires immediate intervention to relieve intrathoracic pressure and prevent cardiovascular collapse.
✦ 台美臨床差異
美國護理師依權限可直接啟動緊急醫療應變小組;台灣多需由專科護理師或醫師評估後進行減壓。
