Clinical Analysis of the Treatment of Exudative Tuberculous Pleurisy with Central Venous Catheter Drainage

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effect of the treatment of exudative tuberculous pleurisy with central venous catheter drainage. Methods: 60 cases of exudative tuberculous pleurisy were divided into two groups. The treatment group was treatedwith central venous catheter drainage, while the control group was treated with multipleconventional thoracentesis. Results: The clinical effect of the treatment group was significantlyhigher in comparison to the control group (p < 0.01). The adverse reaction of the treatment group was significantly lower in contrast to the control group (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Application of central venous catheter drainage in the treatment of exudativetuberculous pleurisy revealed a positive effect, by showing less adverse reaction.Therefore, the treatment is worth to be promoted for clinical application.
