A PleurX drain is a small, flexible tube that's placed in the space around your lungs to remove excess fluid that may be causing breathing problems or discomfort. Your doctor might recommend this procedure if you have conditions like cancer, heart failure, or other illnesses that cause fluid buildup in the chest. During the procedure, you can expect the doctor to place the catheter using imaging guidance, and then you'll receive a bottle and supplies so you or a caregiver can drain the fluid at home on a regular schedule as directed by your medical team.
