Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2011
To re-emphasize the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiac tamponade.Cardiac tamponade is a cause of obstructive shock. Incidence of cardiac tamponade is poorly documented. In cardiac tamponade, the pericardial pressure may reach 15-20 mmHg, leading to an equalization of pressures into the cardiac chambers and to a huge ...

Cardiology Clinics, 1990
Hemodynamic abnormalities induced by pericardial effusion can be categorized by stages. During phase I, pericardial and left and right ventricular pressures are elevated but not equilibrated, and cardiac output is not compromised. During phase II, elevated pericardial and right ventricular filling pressures are equilibrated with each other but not with

Cardiology Clinics, 2017
Cardiac tamponade is caused by an abnormal increase in fluid accumulation in the pericardial sac, which, by raising intracardiac pressures, impedes normal cardiac filling and reduces cardiac output, sometimes dramatically so. This article outlines the pathophysiology, clinical features, and treatment of this important clinical condition highlighting ...

Intensive Care Medicine, 2018
Cardiac tamponade is a vital emergency. It occurs when the accumulation of intra-pericardial fluid exceeds the pericardial adaptation capacity. Pericardial pressure is equalized with that of cardiac cavities and severe heart failure occurs, most often rapidly. Several clinical presentations are possible.

Archives of Surgery, 1971
Percutaneous myocardial biopsy and ventricular perforation during cardiac catheterization may produce acute cardiac tamponade. Compression of the heart results from hemorrhage and the osmotic attraction of effusion from the intrapericardial dye or blood. Prompt recognition and early surgical intervention is emphasized.

Acta Cardiologica, 2013
Malignant pericardial effusion is a frequent complication in primary mediastinal and pleural malignancies. As a first manifestation of a malignant tumour, however, it is rare. With cardiac tamponade the likelihood of malignancy increases. We report a life-threatening cardiac tamponade as the primary clinical presentation of a pericardial mesothelioma ...

Critical Care Nurse, 1991
Once thought to be rare, neoplastic cardiac tamponade is beginning to be recognized more frequently, and is occasionally the presenting symptom of neoplastic disease. This article provides the critical care nurse with the knowledge necessary for care of the patient with neoplastic cardiac tamponade.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1991
Acute cardiac tamponade is life threatening and requires prompt pericardial drainage. This review explains the manifestations of tamponade, including a presentation in which the diagnostic finding of pulsus paradoxus is absent, and variant forms, such as low-pressure tamponade and regional tamponade.

The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing, 1989
Cardiac tamponade is a commonly misdiagnosed, life-threatening condition that causes impaired ventricular filling as a result of increased pericardial pressure. Nurses are in an ideal position to recognize the early, often subtle signs of Decreased Cardiac Output and Altered Tissue Perfusion resulting from cardiac tamponade.
