From the author: A spontaneous pneumothorax is a relatively common clinical problem in the United States. A primary spontaneous pneumothorax occurs in otherwise healthy individuals, especially in young adults. It is important for adult-health/ medical-surgical nurses to understand the recommended medical treatment and nursing management for patients with spontaneous pneumothorax. Nursing care includes preventing complications, resolving the pneumothorax, managing pain, and educating the patient and family.
