Methods: 448 patients (337 male, 111 female) taken to open heart surgery december 2007 and november 2011 in our clinic. The mean age was 57,33 +/- 3,6 in patients. Drainage tubes were pulled on postoperative 1 day except much drainage and pneumothorax. Negative pressure was applied thorax drainage tubes between 70 and 100 mm Hg while pulling thorax drainage tubes. Results: Total 1008 number drainage tubes were placed. Thorasyntesis was applied because of liquid collection in left hemithorax in 3 patients. Pneumothorax was seen in 1 patient.
