Cardiac tamponade

Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2023
Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency caused by the progressive accumulation of pericardial fluid (effusion), blood, pus or air in the pericardium, compressing the heart chambers and leading to haemodynamic compromise, circulatory shock, cardiac arrest and death.

Cardiac Tamponade

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1975
Cardiac tamponade is an insidious and often fatal complication which can occur on any service, in many diseases, and at any age. The increasing pressure within the pericardium prevents ventricular filling and depresses cardiac output, coronary and systemic perfusion, and venous return.

Cardiac Tamponade

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

Cardiac tamponade

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 ...

Cardiac Tamponade

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 ...

Hypothyroid Cardiac Tamponade

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1987
Pericardial effusion, a common cardiac manifestation of myxedema,1,2is rarely associated with cardiac tamponade; to our knowledge, only 19 reports of this phenomenon appear in the English literature.3-7In all reported cases, identification of tamponade was largely derived from clinical and echocardiographic examination, and available hemodynamic data ...

Cardiac tamponade in myxedema

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1975
Pericardial effusions are frequently found in myxedema and , when present, are asymptomatic and usually of no hemodynamic consequence. We report a patient with ascites and pericardial effusion due to myxedema who developed cardiac tamponade following abdominal paracentesis.
