Pigtail catheters (PC) and their association with less pain have led to increased use for trauma patients. The need for repeat interventions after pigtail versus traditional thoracostomy tubes (TTT) in the setting of acute trauma is unknown. We hypothesized that pigtail catheters would be associated with more complications. 000008413 540__ $$fCC BY 000008413 542__ $$fIn copyright - joint owners 000008413 650__ $$aCatheters$$038977 000008413 650__ $$aThoracostomy$$027014 000008413 6531_ $$apigtail catheters 000008413 6531_ $$atrauma patients 000008413 7001_ $$aMcConnell, Keeley$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008413 7001_ $$aDewey, Elizabeth$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008413 7001_ $$aGoodman, Andrew$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008413 7001_ $$aFlemming, Michael$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008413 7001_ $$aZentmeyer, Avery$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000008413 711__ $$aResearch Week$$uOregon Health and Science University$$d2020 000008413 7201_ $$aUnderwood, Sam$$uOregon Health and Science University$$eCollaborator$$7Personal 000008413 8564_ $$91341ff27-e5f4-41c2-803a-a8cd6884f456$$s57299$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8413/files/ResearchWeek.2020.McConnell.Keeley_abstract.pdf 000008413 8564_ $$9e248be68-d458-4a33-86cc-ac4ed490a96a$$s959669$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8413/files/ResearchWeek.2020.McConnell.Keeley_presentation.pdf 000008413 905__ $$a/rest/prod/rb/68/xc/39/rb68xc399 000008413 980__ $$aResearch Week
