Epub 2013 Jan 30. 3 Endoscopic ultrasonography shows the fluid space of the abscess, which was punc- tured using a 19-gauge needle. The average collection size was 8.54.2cm with gas present in 140/278 (50%) of collections; median amount drained was 35mL, and visibly purulent material was obtained in 172/278 (63%). To report open placement of a tunneled intraperitoneal catheter for dialysis, use 49421. It has several advantages and disadvantages over CT, which include: is a dynamic study,allowing greater precision to control needle insertion, does not expose patients to ionizing radiation, does not require as wide a range of staff,compared to CT-guided procedures, deeper targets may not be as well-visualized on ultrasound (e.g. Method: We included consecutive cases with POFC treated by EUS-GD between September . Cultures were positive in 205/278 (74%) patients with a resulting change in management in 181/278 (65%) cases.

Several factors were found to be statistically significant predictors of positive cultures: patient leukocytosis (sens 62%, spec 53%), gas in the collection on CT (sens 59%, spec 77%), purulent material aspiration (sens 76%, spec 76%), and presence of polymorphonuclear cells in the specimen. Management of peripancreatic fluid collections following partial pancreatectomy: a comparison of percutaneous versus EUS-guided drainage. Leukocytosis was present in 163/278 (59%), and fever in 65/278 (24%). FOIA Ultrasound guided percutaneous drainage. Patients who undergo this procedure are usually hospitalized.
