Abstract :Identifying risk factors for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) following thoracentesis in critically ill patients is crucial for optimizing management strategies. Recent findings indicate that vasopressor use and prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay are independent predictors of IMV requirement, suggesting a heightened vulnerability in hemodynamically unstable patients. Additionally, variations in comorbidity profiles may influence IMV risk, underscoring the potential utility of standardized assessment tools such as the Charlson Comorbidity Index. A comprehensive risk stratification approach incorporating both acute physiological status and chronic disease burden is essential for improving clinical outcomes in ICU patients undergoing thoracentesis.Keywords : Torasentez, invaziv mekanik ventilasyon, yoğun bakım ünitesi, plevral efüzyon, risk faktörleri, eşlik eden hastalıklar
