By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News – New research on Respiratory Tract Dise ases and Conditions - Chylothorax is the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from New York City, New York, by NewsRx correspondents, re search stated, “Early removal of chest tubes reduces pain and morbidity. This st udy aimed to remove chest tubes immediately after robotic pulmonary resection wi th complete thoracic lymphadenectomy by administering ice cream to rule out chyl othorax.” Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from New York University (NY U) Langone Health, “This quality improvement study utilized prospectively gather ed data from one thoracic surgeon. Patients were given 3.6 fl oz of ice cream in the recovery room within 1 h after their operation. Chest tubes were removed wi thin 4 h if there was no chylous drainage and air leak on the digital drainage s ystem. From January 2022 to August 2023, 343 patients underwent robotic pulmonar y resection with complete thoracic lymphadenectomy. The median time to ingest th e ice cream was 1.5 h after skin closure. The incidence of chylothorax was 0.87% (3/343). Two patients were diagnosed with chylothorax after consuming ice cream within 4 h of surgery. One patient, whose chest tube remained in place due to an air leak, had a chylothorax diagnosed on postoperative day 1 (POD1). All three patients were discharged home on POD1 with their chest tubes in place, adhering to a no-fat, medium-chain triglyceride diet. All chylothoraces resolved within 6 days. None of the remaining patients developed chylothorax postoperatively with a minimum follow-up period of 90 days. Providing ice cream to patients after pu lmonary resection and complete thoracic lymphadenectomy is an effective and reli able technique to rule out chylothorax early in the postoperative period and fac ilitates early chest tube removal.”
