“It is very difficult, within the world of thoracic surgery books, to create a new book that is unique. However, the book “Chest Drains in Daily Clinical Practice” by Thomas Kiefer clearly deserves this distinction, and not just in one way, but for several reasons. ... It addresses aspects of care faced by physicians, nurses, physiotherapists, and, in fact, includes all of these specialties in the choice of authors. It is a worthwhile book for an entire thoracic surgery service to use in organizing their care. ... I recommend this book to anyone involved in thoracic surgical care who is interested in improving patient care, and who is willing to not just focus on flashy high-visibility aspects, but to look at the simple daily routines that may have much greater actual overall impact.” (Frank C. Detterbeck FACS, FCCP, Yale University, Department of Thoracic Surgery, USA)
