At my hospital (where I work & not that I own) there is a policy that nurses only flush chest tubes to the atrium (away from the patient) and not the catheter (which would make sense to ensure patency)
This was not the case at my training institute and nurses flushed chest tubes once a shift as standard care
Is this common practice? What do you guys do
