🛑A thoracentesis is a minimally invasive procedure used to drain extra fluid around the lung. 📍This can be done to help clinicians figure out why the fluid is there. 📍It can also be done to make it easier and more comfortable to breathe. 📍The clinician may use ultrasound to find the fluid. 📍The clinician numbs the skin then places a tiny tube through the skin into the space around the lungs to drain the fluid. 📍You may start coughing as the fluid drains off and your lungs expand. 📍Afterwards, the tube is removed and a bandage applied.
