Article Synopsis
- - The study examined the differences in causes of undiagnosed pleural effusions between outpatient and inpatient settings, involving 1,080 adult patients from four UK hospitals.
- - Results showed that malignant effusions were more frequent in outpatients (48.3%) while infections were more common in inpatients (36.2%), indicating significant differences based on patient status.
- - The findings suggest that diagnostic approaches should be tailored based on whether patients are admitted to the hospital or seen as outpatients.
