There are choices for this question namely:

a) "Exhale forcefully while the chest tube is being removed."
b) "While the chest tube is being removed, raise your arms above your head."
c) "During the removal of the chest tube, do not move because it will make the removal more painful."
<span>d) "When the tube is being removed, take a deep breath, exhale, and bear down."

After which, a clean, air tight, dressing shall be applied to the wound.</span>
