Drainage Of Fluid From Around The Heart

California rates for HCPCS 33010

A needle is passed through the chest wall into the sac surrounding the heart and the fluid collected there is drawn off. Removing it relieves pressure on the heart so it can fill and pump properly, and the fluid can also be sent for testing. This covers the first such drainage.
