Cardiac tamponade is a life-threatening condition that may require the urgent removal of pericardial fluid. Therefore, the pericardiocentesis procedure should be part of the skills of physicians treating critically ill patients. The pericardiocentesis technique has evolved from a blind and unguided procedure, prone to complications, to a safer and more

Pericardiocentesis, the percutaneous drainage of the pericardial effusion, is the technique of choice for the treatment of cardiac tamponade. In addition, it could be useful for diagnostic purposes in specific situations. The pericardial puncture could be associated to serious complications and as it could be performed in a wide variety of clinical ...

Ultrasonically guided pericardiocentesis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1973Abstract With use of a specially designed ultrasonic transducer with a central lumen, pericardial effusions could be detected and, if indicated, aspirated. A standard needle was directed through the hole in the ultrasonic transducer into the pericardial sac. The path of the needle tip as it entered the effusion could be followed Ultrasonically.

Purpose: Pericardial effusion in patients who have recently undergone cardiac surgery is often trapped in compartments. CT of the pericardium provides good information about the distribution of pericardial fluid in the postoperative period after cardiac surgery.
