If you are asking this, you shouldn't even consider trying to do it. It is a highly advanced procedure, with serious risks of pneumothorax leading to lung collapse, cardiogenic shock and sepsis. You need a CXR post-tap to check that you have not invaded any other tissue or inadvertently caused a pneumothorax, check breath sounds and chest expansion bilaterally after for the same reason and it needs to be replaced ASAP with a sterile, sutured drain. Of course, it would ideally be done under full sterile conditions with gowns, drapes and gloves.
