hi,positive
(1)i do tube before consult.but maybe first consult then do tube.
(2)i think we can place tube in ward observe,after patient improve ,d/c in icu.
(3)thoracic surgery consult.not pulmnology i think
(4)i think if patient improve and stable,we may put in ward directly to observe. it looks like too much shift icu then ward for this case.
any idea about that.

I think we don't wait, we don't have time for Thoracic consult, we need place the tube first. If you think that the patient is going to be better, you can move him to ward, but if there is something wrong or you think that the patient is going to be worse go to ICU.

I think the thoracic tube place is a procedure for us.

you are right, we need to control this patcient with CXR, then you can take off the tube if it is recommended, but probably the case end before.
