Pneumothorax exploration in 3D: causes, symptoms, and treatment insights What is pneumothorax? It’s a condition where air escapes into the space between the lung and the chest wall, causing the lung to collapse partially or entirely. This can lead to severe breathing difficulties, chest pain, and, in extreme cases, life-threatening complications. With VOKA 3D Anatomy & Pathology, you can explore pneumothorax in hyperrealistic 3D detail, helping medical students and practitioners visualize this c

🚨 Question Of The Day 🚨 A 54-year-old man develops severe pneumonia and is placed on mechanical ventilation with PEEP of 10 cm H₂O. He becomes increasingly restless, and the nurse notes a sudden drop in oxygen saturation from 95 % to 82 %, hypotension (88/54 mmHg), and absent breath sounds on the right side. What should the nurse do first? A. Disconnect the ventilator briefly and manually ventilate with a bag-valve device while assessing for tension pneumothorax. B. Increase the FiO₂ to 100 %
