Evolution of the pericardiocentesis technique
Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018Pericardiocentesis is a valuable technique for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade, although it may be associated with potentially serious complications. Through the years, many different imaging approaches have been described to reduce the complication rate of the procedure.

Towards a Wristed Percutaneous Robot With Variable Stiffness for Pericardiocentesis
IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2021Pericardiocentesis is the drainage of excessive fluid in the pericardium surrounding the heart under ultrasound guidance. The percutaneous procedure comes with the risk of cardiac perforation since the needle is inserted towards the beating heart.

Prehospital Pericardiocentesis Using a Pneumothorax Needle
Prehospital Emergency Care, 2021Case: We discuss a patient with a penetrating knife wound to the chest who lost pulses from cardiac tamponade. Prehospital ultrasound was able to quickly identify the tamponade and a pericardiocentesis was performed using a Simplified Pneumothorax ...

Cardiac tamponade is a life-threatening condition resulting from compression of the cardiac chambers by a pericardial effusion. The principal cause of pericardial effusion is malignant disease of the pericardium, but infectious causes and cardiac trauma are common as well.

A 51-year-old woman underwent elective cardiac surgery for the closure of an atrial septal defect. The surgery was uneventful and the patient was making good progress. On postoperative day 6, she developed shortness of breath, tachycardia and raised jugular venous pressure.

The risk of pericardiocentesis
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1979The risk and potential risk factors of pericardiocentesis were assessed by a review of a series of 52 pericardiocenteses comprising all those performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory of one institution from 1971 to 1978. On the basis of the operative results, the patients were separated into two groups for comparison; Group I comprised all ...

Pericardiocentesis versus window formation in malignant pericardial effusion: trends and outcomes
HeartObjectives Malignant pericardial effusion (MPE) in patients with cancer is associated with poor prognosis. This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes in patients with cancer who underwent pericardiocentesis versus pericardial window formation. Methods
