When the nurse notes fluctuation of the fluid level in the water seal chamber after the tube is inserted the most appropriate action should be the nurse should suction the patient.

A sterile tube with several drainage holes called a chest tube, also known as a thoracic catheter, is introduced into the pleural space.

A chest tube drainage system is a sterile, disposable device with one or more chambers and a compartment system with a one-way valve to evacuate air or fluid and prevent it from entering the patient again.

When the chest tube is patent, the water in the water-seal chamber should rise with inhale and descend with exhale (this is known as tiddling). Continuous bubbling could be an indication of an air leak, and more recent systems feature a measurement mechanism for leaks; the higher the number, the worse the breach.
