| Procedural |
| Death or further morbidity due to bleeding, hypoxia, analgesia/sedation, or inability to rapidly perform the procedure |
| Analgesia/sedation-related complications |
| Injury to one or more chest wall structures (eg, ribs, intercostal nerve bundle, internal thoracic artery, breast) |
| Injury to one or more intrathoracic structures (eg, lung trachea, bronchus, diaphragm, heart, great vessels, esophagus, phrenic nerve, thoracic duct, thymus) |
| Injury to one or more extrathoracic structures (eg, neck, liver, spleen, stomach, intestine) |
| Infection (thoracostomy site, empyema, mediastinitis, sepsis) |
| Bleeding (eg, thoracostomy site, intercostal vessel, internal thoracic vessel, pleural adhesions) |
| Hemoptysis |
| Peripheral nerve injury (eg, intercostal nerve, phrenic nerve, thoracic nerve) |
| Drug/allergic reaction (latex, anesthetic, prep solution, analgesics, sedatives, antibiotic) |
| Improper extrathoracic position of catheter/tube (subcutaneous, muscular, or abdominal) |
| Catheter/tube leak due to side port outside of the thorax or faulty drainage device connections |
| Tube loss due to failure to properly secure the catheter/tube in place |
| Inappropriate catheter/tube positioning due to failure to check postprocedure chest radiograph or adjust catheter/tube position based on radiograph |
| Misinterpretation of needle thoracostomy findings |
| Inappropriately sized size catheter/tube requiring repeat procedure |
| Dysrhythmia |
| Improper skin incision that causes unnecessary cosmetic impact |
| Damage to another medical device near the operative site |
| Improperly connected Heimlich valve (ie, wrong direction) |
| Improper setup of a water seal-drainage reservoir-suction apparatus |
| Postprocedural |
| Death or further morbidity due to infection, bleeding, or failure to correct a dysfunctional device |
| Kinked, obstructed, or dislodged catheter/tube that requires an additional procedure |
| Failure to recognize catheter/tube or drainage/suction device malfunction |
| Late injury or erosion of an anatomic structure due to the catheter/tube |
| Dysfunction of an anatomic structure due to impingement by the catheter/tube |
| Failure to remove device when it is no longer needed |
| Late infection (eg, thoracostomy site, empyema, mediastinitis, sepsis) |
| Pneumothorax upon catheter/tube removal that requires intervention |
| Pleural fistula |
| Failure to place additional catheters/tubes when drainage by a single catheter/tube is inadequate to restore satisfactory physiologic status |
| Failure to maintain sterile technique during manipulation of device or drainage system |
