It has been almost 2 years since I last wet tapped a pt. Today, I had a 90yo female for a hip revision. Plan was to place an epidural. Plain vanilla approach, but there was no loss of resistance in the epidural space, then bam- I get fluid back, except it was strange in appearance and viscosity. This stuff was a yellowish/ light greenish tinted fluid and the consistency was like a thin syrup and very sticky. I don't know exactly what this stuff was, but I repositioned at another space and placed a catheter.
Anyone ever see this? or have any ideas?
Thanks
