Name
Age / Sex
IP No. / Bed No.
Diagnosis

Indication

  • Diagnostic - to evaluate undiagnosed pleural effusion
  • Therapeutic - to relieve dyspnoea due to large pleural effusion
  • Both diagnostic and therapeutic

Consent

Written informed consent obtained from the patient / guardian after explaining the procedure, its purpose, risks, and alternatives. Patient questions addressed satisfactorily.

Pre-procedure Assessment

Clinical findings suggesting effusion:
  • Dull percussion note over [Right / Left] lower zone
  • Absent breath sounds / decreased vocal resonance over [Right / Left] lower zone
Imaging review:
  • Chest X-ray (PA view, date: ________): [Describe - e.g., homogeneous opacity with obliteration of costophrenic angle on the right side, trachea deviated to the left, consistent with large right-sided pleural effusion]
  • Ultrasound thorax (if done, date: ______): Confirmed [Right / Left] pleural effusion. Safe insertion site marked at [intercostal space]. Estimated depth: [ cm]. No lung movement (curtain sign absent) at marked site.
Coagulation status:
  • INR: [value] | Platelets: [value] - acceptable for procedure
Oxygen saturation pre-procedure: [__]% on [room air / oxygen]

Equipment Used

  • Sterile gloves, sterile drape, betadine/chlorhexidine solution, sterile gauze
  • 10 mL syringe with 25-gauge needle (for local anaesthesia)
  • Lignocaine 2% with adrenaline (10 mL drawn up)
  • 50 mL Luer-Lok syringe with three-way stopcock
  • 18-gauge (2.5-inch) needle / 16-gauge catheter-over-needle
  • Specimen collection tubes: red top (biochemistry), lavender top (cell count), blood culture bottles (aerobic + anaerobic), cytology container (50 mL red top)
  • Vacuum drainage bottles (500 mL / 1000 mL) - for therapeutic tap
  • Sterile tubing, adhesive dressing

Procedure

Patient position: Patient seated comfortably, leaning forward with arms supported on a pillow/overbed table. The lower back was kept as vertical as possible to keep free-flowing fluid in the posterior location. (Note: Alternatively, patient was positioned in lateral decubitus with the affected side down for a debilitated patient.)
Site selection: The insertion site was chosen one to two interspaces below the fluid level, 5-10 cm lateral to the spine, along the posterior scapular line. The site was NOT below the eighth intercostal space. The site was marked.
Timeout: Patient identity confirmed. Correct side verified with two operators. Imaging confirmed. Timeout completed.
Skin preparation: Area cleaned with betadine/chlorhexidine solution in concentric circles and allowed to dry. Sterile fenestrated drape applied.
Local anaesthesia: A skin wheal was raised with lignocaine 2% using a 25-gauge needle. A 22-gauge needle was then advanced at a slightly downward angle, walking it over the superior border of the rib (to avoid the intercostal neurovascular bundle which runs in the subcostal groove). The needle was advanced while alternately aspirating and injecting lignocaine, anesthetizing the periosteum, intercostal muscles, and parietal pleura. Pleural fluid was aspirated with the anesthesia needle, confirming entry into the pleural space.
Needle insertion: An 18-gauge needle (or catheter-over-needle) was advanced over the superior rib margin into the pleural space using the same trajectory as the anaesthesia needle. Free flow of [colour/appearance] fluid confirmed. The catheter was slid over the needle and the needle removed; the catheter was secured at the skin surface.
Fluid withdrawal:
  • Diagnostic sample: 60 mL fluid withdrawn with syringe and distributed into specimen tubes at bedside.
  • Therapeutic drainage: Vacuum drainage system connected; fluid drained until [__ mL] removed / patient reported relief of dyspnoea / resistance was felt.
  • Drainage was stopped when [cough / chest discomfort / resistance] was noted.
  • Total volume drained: [__ mL]
Catheter removal: Catheter removed at end-expiration / Valsalva manoeuvre. Occlusive dressing applied.

Tips for the elog book entry:
  1. Always document the side clearly (left/right) - a wrong-side tap is a never event.
  2. Mention ultrasound guidance if used - it is now standard of care per BTS guidelines and reduces pneumothorax risk significantly.
  3. The needle should always go over the superior rib border - never the inferior edge.
  4. For therapeutic taps, do not remove more than 1.0-1.5 L in a single session to avoid re-expansion pulmonary oedema.
  5. Document the fluid appearance at the bedside - it is an important first clue (e.g., milky = chylothorax, purulent = empyema, bloody = haemothorax/malignancy).
  6. Post-procedure CXR is not mandatory after every tap - document the specific reason if you order it.

Make in one paragraph

Here is the pleural tap procedure note as a single paragraph for your elog book:

Procedure Note - Pleural Tap (Thoracentesis)
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient after explaining the procedure, its indications, risks, and alternatives. Pre-procedure chest X-ray and ultrasound thorax confirmed a [right/left]-sided pleural effusion; the safe insertion site was marked under ultrasound guidance at the [th] intercostal space, [ cm] lateral to the spine, one to two interspaces below the fluid level. A timeout was performed confirming patient identity and correct side. The patient was seated comfortably leaning forward with arms supported on a pillow. The skin was cleaned with betadine/chlorhexidine and a sterile drape was applied using aseptic technique. Local anaesthesia was achieved with lignocaine 2% using a 25-gauge needle to raise a skin wheal, followed by a 22-gauge needle walked over the superior border of the [th] rib, anaesthetizing the periosteum, intercostal muscles, and parietal pleura; pleural fluid was aspirated confirming entry into the pleural space. An 18-gauge needle attached to a 50 mL syringe with a three-way stopcock was then advanced over the superior rib border along the same trajectory, and free flow of [straw-coloured/haemorrhagic/turbid] fluid was obtained. A total of [ mL] of fluid was drained [for diagnostic purposes / therapeutically until the patient reported relief of dyspnoea]. Fluid samples were sent for protein, LDH, glucose, ADA, total and differential cell count, Gram stain with culture and sensitivity, AFB smear and culture, and cytology. The needle was removed at end-expiration and an occlusive dressing was applied. Post-procedure vitals were stable; SpO2 was [__%] on room air. Post-procedure chest X-ray showed [no pneumothorax / pneumothorax]. The procedure was completed without any immediate complications.

I have sufficient detail from the textbooks. Here is the liver biopsy procedure note as a single paragraph:

Procedure Note - Percutaneous Liver Biopsy
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient after explaining the procedure, its indications, risks (including bleeding, biliary leak, visceral perforation, and mortality risk of approximately 0.01%), and alternatives including non-invasive fibrosis assessment. Pre-procedure investigations confirmed suitability: INR [value] (less than 1.4), platelet count [value] (greater than 60,000/mm³), and no significant ascites. Ultrasound abdomen was performed immediately prior to the procedure to identify the optimal biopsy site, confirm liver size and echogenicity, rule out vascular lesions in the needle path, and measure depth of needle insertion required. A timeout was performed confirming patient identity and correct site. The patient was positioned supine with the right arm abducted and placed behind the head. The right lateral chest wall over the area of maximum hepatic dullness (typically at the [8th/9th] intercostal space in the mid-axillary line) was identified and marked. The skin was cleaned with betadine/chlorhexidine and sterile draping was applied using aseptic technique. Local anaesthesia was achieved with lignocaine 2% injected as a skin wheal using a 25-gauge needle, followed by deeper infiltration through the intercostal space down to the liver capsule with a 22-gauge needle, taking care to avoid the inferior rib border. The patient was instructed to hold their breath in mid-expiration (to bring the liver down and minimise respiratory excursion) throughout the actual needle pass. A [16G Tru-Cut / 16G spring-loaded automated / Menghini suction] biopsy needle was then rapidly advanced into the liver parenchyma during the breath-hold and a core of liver tissue was obtained in a single pass. The needle was withdrawn promptly; the patient resumed normal breathing. A total of [1/2] passes were made. The specimen measured approximately [__ cm] in length and was placed immediately in [10% formalin / appropriate container]. An occlusive dressing was applied over the puncture site. The patient was instructed to lie on the right side for 2 hours to tamponade the biopsy tract. Vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, SpO2) were monitored every 15 minutes for the first 2 hours and then half-hourly for the next 4 hours. The patient was observed for [6/24] hours post-procedure. Post-procedure ultrasound was performed at [__ hours] showing [no haematoma / subcapsular haematoma of __ cm]. The biopsy specimen was sent for histopathological examination with [H&E, Masson's trichrome, PAS, reticulin, Prussian blue for iron, and/or special stains as indicated]. The procedure was completed without any immediate complications.

I have all the information needed. Here is the lumbar puncture procedure note as a single paragraph:

Procedure Note - Lumbar Puncture (LP)
Written informed consent was obtained from the patient after explaining the procedure, its indication, risks (including post-LP headache, bleeding, infection, nerve root irritation, and the rare risk of brainstem herniation if raised intracranial pressure is present), and alternatives. Pre-procedure assessment confirmed no clinical signs of raised intracranial pressure (no papilloedema on fundoscopy, no focal neurological deficits, no altered consciousness, no seizure within the preceding week); CT head [was / was not] performed prior to the procedure and showed [no contraindication to LP / normal]. Coagulation screen was checked: INR [value] (less than 1.4) and platelet count [value] (greater than 50,000/mm³). The patient was positioned in the left lateral decubitus position with hips and knees drawn up to the chest and neck flexed in full fetal position (or alternatively, seated upright with the back maximally flexed); this position was maintained throughout the procedure with the assistance of a nurse. The posterior superior iliac crests were palpated to identify the L3-L4 (or L4-L5) interspace, which lies at the level of the intercristal line and is safely below the termination of the spinal cord at L1-L2. The site was marked. The skin was cleaned with betadine/chlorhexidine in concentric circles and allowed to dry; sterile draping was applied. Local anaesthesia was achieved with 2-3 mL of 1% lignocaine using a 25-gauge needle to raise a skin wheal, followed by deeper infiltration into the subcutaneous tissues and interspinous ligament. A [20G/22G] Quincke spinal needle with stylet in situ was inserted at the marked interspace in the midline, directed slightly cephalad (at approximately 15 degrees toward the umbilicus), and advanced slowly through the supraspinous ligament, interspinous ligament, and ligamentum flavum; a distinct "give" or "pop" was felt as the needle passed through the ligamentum flavum and then the dura to enter the subarachnoid space. The stylet was removed and clear [colourless / blood-stained / xanthochromic] CSF was observed dripping freely from the needle hub. The manometer was attached via a three-way stopcock and opening pressure was measured at [__ mm H₂O] (normal: 70-180 mm H₂O in adults). CSF was collected sequentially into 4 numbered tubes (approximately 2-3 mL each): tube 1 for biochemistry (protein and glucose with simultaneous serum glucose), tube 2 for microbiology (Gram stain, culture and sensitivity, AFB smear and culture if indicated), tube 3 for cell count and differential (tube 3 used preferentially as minor traumatic blood contamination clears by this point), and tube 4 frozen/stored for additional studies if required. Closing pressure was measured at [__ mm H₂O]. Total CSF collected: [__ mL]. The stylet was replaced and the needle withdrawn in a single smooth movement. An occlusive dressing was applied to the puncture site. The patient was advised to lie flat for [1-4] hours post-procedure and to maintain adequate oral hydration to reduce the risk of post-LP headache. Vitals remained stable throughout. The procedure was completed without immediate complications.

 "Pre-procedure investigations confirmed: platelet count 85,000/mm³, INR 1.1, and no active skin infection "
 "over the intended site. The patient was positioned prone for the posterior superior iliac spine (PSIS) "
 "approach. The PSIS was identified by palpation as the primary biopsy site. A timeout was performed "
 "confirming patient identity and correct site. The overlying skin was cleaned with 10% povidone-iodine "
 "solution and sterile draping applied. Local anaesthesia was achieved with 8 mL of 2% lignocaine "
 "injected as a skin wheal using a 25-gauge needle, then infiltrated progressively through the "
 "subcutaneous tissue and periosteum with a 22-gauge needle; adequate anaesthesia was confirmed by "
 "absence of pain on periosteal pressure. The bone marrow aspiration needle (Salah, 16G, 3 cm) "
 "was inserted with the stylet in situ through the skin and advanced through the cortical bone "
 "using firm rotatory pressure until a sudden give indicated entry into the medullary cavity "
 "(depth of penetration approximately 1.5 cm). The stylet was removed and a 20 mL syringe attached; "
 "5 mL of marrow was aspirated with a single sharp pull — the patient experienced the expected brief "
 "sharp pain during aspiration. Eight smears were prepared immediately at the bedside on glass slides. "
 "The aspiration needle was removed. Without changing the skin puncture site, the Jamshidi trephine "
 "biopsy needle (11G, 4 cm) was inserted, advanced 2 cm beyond the aspiration site, rotated 360 degrees "
 "in alternating directions, and a core of bone 1.8 cm in length and 3 mm in diameter was obtained. "
 "The core was transferred to 10% buffered formalin for histopathology. Firm pressure was applied "
 "over the site for 8 minutes; a pressure dressing was applied. The patient was advised to lie supine "
 "for 60 minutes post-procedure. Samples sent: aspirate smears (8 slides) for morphology and "
 "differential cell count, trephine core for histopathology with H&E and reticulin stains, "
 "flow cytometry (10 mL in EDTA), and cytogenetics (5 mL in sodium heparin). "
 "Vital signs remained stable throughout. The procedure was completed without immediate complications."),
