==Additional Info==
*This code is for diagnostic paracentesis only -- and this requires use of a needle, through the abdominal wall, with removal of peritoneal fluid.
*For therapeutic paracentesis you construct it from components as
**'''[[(T) Abdominal, Pelvic or Peritoneal Cavity, NOS]]'''
**'''[[Drainage, Evacuation]]'''
*For peritoneal fluid removed from an existing conduit (e.g. a PD catheter) for diagnostic purposes (e.g. fluid for C&S or cytology) then combine: [[(D) Abdominal, Pelvic or Peritoneal Cavity, NOS]], with [[Biopsy (non-endoscopic)]]

*{{Discuss | who = Allan | question = Therapeutic abdominal paracentesis:  The pick list has diagnostic but not therapeutic paracentesis.  When I put it in using the component method, I put "therapeutic intervention on Abdominal or Pelvic Cavity" and then I put "drainage, evacuation"  which seems OK.  The only question I have is how do you differentiate this paracentesis from an open drainage procedure of the abdomen to drain an abscess or blood in the OR?  Just checking.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 13:01, 2018 June 28 (CDT) }}
