ICD (Intercostal Drainage) Insertion

Welcome to Dr. Sunil Lung Care Center, where your respiratory well-being takes center stage. Our dedicated team specializes in providing advanced medical services, including ICD Insertion, a crucial procedure for selected patients with pneumothorax and pleural effusions.

Understanding ICD Insertion

ICD Insertion involves the placement of an intercostal drainage tube, a specialized tube, into the pleural space surrounding the lungs. This procedure is typically performed for patients experiencing pneumothorax (accumulation of air in the pleural space) or pleural effusions (accumulation of fluid). Here’s how ICD Insertion works:

Draining Air or Fluid

The primary purpose of the intercostal drainage tube is to drain accumulated air or fluid from the pleural space. This drainage is crucial for relieving pressure and preventing complications associated with conditions like pneumothorax or pleural effusions.

Connected to a Drainage System

In some cases, the inserted tube may be connected to a drainage system, which assists in the controlled removal of air or fluid. This system can facilitate a more efficient and precise drainage process.

Duration of Tube Placement

The intercostal drainage tube remains in place until the fluid, blood, or air is successfully drained from the chest. This duration may vary depending on the individual patient's condition and response to treatment.
