Clinical Trial Summary

The study will enroll recurrent aseptic pleural effusion patients who are designated by their physician as needing treatment to control the fluid. Baseline assessment will include a history and physical, chest imaging and quality of life questionnaires. After ACES implantation, patients will remain under hospital care for general observation as per standard-of-care before being discharged home with access to electronic diaries for tracking pain and dyspnea.
