Study Summary

Arthrocentesis is the removal of synovial fluid for analysis of pathologic processes. Small \& medium joint arthrocentesis will be defined as the following joints: elbow, wrist, finger, ankle and toe. Ultrasound (US) and landmark (LM) small \& medium joint arthrocentesis are both performed within the clinical setting. Both techniques are considered standard of care. Selection of which technique to use is dependent upon the physician's preference. There is currently limited data comparing the two methods. The investigators hope to determine if one modality is more effective in terms of success rate, number of attempts, and time to complete the procedure.
