ACUTE BENIGN PERICARDITIS

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1951
DESPITE numerous clinical reports in the current literature, 1 acute benign pericarditis continues to be mistaken for more serious cardiac diseases, especially acute myocardial infarction. The former generally affects persons of a younger age group.

Outcomes of acute pericarditis with an inflammatory phenotype [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology
Background: Patients with pericarditis may show elevation of C-reactive protein (CRP) and pericardial effusion at presentation. There are limited data on the prognostic implications of this inflammatory phenotype.

Acute pericarditis

2008
This chapter investigates acute pericarditis. The pericardium serves to protect the heart from physiologic changes in intracardiac pressure related to respiration and postural change, and it may also augment the mechanical function of the cardiac chambers.

ACUTE IDIOPATHIC PERICARDITIS

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1951
Pericarditis is almost uniformly secondary to some other pathological process. It is usually an acute inflammation of the pericardium and subepicardial myocardium, with or without effusion, and its prognosis most often depends on the causative agent or underlying disease.

Acute Pericarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 1990
Acute pericarditis may be of viral or idiopathic origin, may be induced by certain drugs, may occur as a consequence of thoracic surgery, may result from infection by bacteria or other organisms, or may be associated with noninfectious systemic disease. In some instances, pericarditis may be detected quickly, and in other cases it may not be recognized

Acute nonspecific pericarditis

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1958
Abstract Unidentified infection of the respiratory tract preceded the onset of acute nonspecific pericarditis in 16 of our 18 patients. Chest pain and pericardial friction rub occurred almost simultaneously or preceded the appearance of fever, leukocytosis, and elevation of the sedimentation rate.

The management of acute pericarditis

Acute Medicine Journal, 2005
Acute pericarditis is usually a benign self-limiting condition, often of unexplained or viral aetiology, involving inflammation of the pericardial layers. It is often part of the differential diagnosis in patients admitted with acute chest pain and can be confused with acute myocardial infarction, acute pulmonary embolism and pleurisy.

Acute constrictive pericarditis

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1961
Summary A case of acute constrictive pericarditis secondary to meningococcal infection is presented. Fatal concretio cordis developed with unprecedented speed 21 days after the onset of suppurative pericarditis. The literature is reviewed pertaining to the relationship of suppurative pericarditis and subsequent concretio cordis.

Acute benign pericarditis

American Heart Journal, 1964
Abstract A resume of the condition known as acute benign pericarditis has been presented. Seasonal incidence, sporadic cases with histories of acute respiratory infections prior to the onset of chest pain, and the increasing number of reports of positive viral studies suggest a virus to be the cause in the greater percentage of cases.

Acute and Recurrent Pericarditis

Cardiology Clinics, 2017
Acute and recurrent pericarditis is the most common pericardial syndrome encountered in clinical practice either as an isolated process or as part of a systemic disease. The diagnosis is based on clinical evaluation, electrocardiogram, and echocardiography.
