Full description:

Each year, thousands of chest drains are inserted, often as life-saving procedures. However, complications can still occur, even with correct placement, and may be under-reported.

We’ve created a short, anonymous survey for patients, or relatives to share experiences of chest drain complications. Your input will help us understand and prioritise these issues.
