胸腔引流系統的水封瓶(Water-seal chamber)若出現持續性冒泡,代表系統內有空氣洩漏。護理師應遵循「由上而下(Systematic check)」的原則檢查管路連接處是否密封完整。切勿隨意夾住胸管,因為這可能導致氣體積聚於胸腔引發張力性氣胸(Tension pneumothorax)。
Continuous bubbling in the water-seal chamber indicates an air leak within the drainage system, so the nurse should first check all connections for integrity rather than clamping the tube, which could cause a tension pneumothorax.
