A Novel, Low-cost, Low-fidelity Pericardiocentesis Teaching Model

Western Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2021
Introduction Pericardiocentesis is a high-risk/low-frequency procedure important to emergency medicine (EM). However, due to case rarity it is not often performed on a patient during residency training.

Autoimmune Haemolytic Anaemia, Acute Pericarditis with Cardiac Tamponade as Presenting Manifestations in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus- A Rare Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disorder that affects mostly young women in which tissue-binding autoantibodies and immune complexes cause damage to organs and tissues.

High frequency ultrasound‐guided pericardiocentesis performed in the sitting position: A novel apical approach

Clinical Cardiology, 2021
So far, few approaches have been described to reduce inadvertent injury to structure of the heart and nearby organs in percutaneous pericardiocentesis.

Initial Experience with a Novel Pericardiocentesis Training Simulator Incorporating a Three-dimensional Printed Cardiac Model

Journal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management, 2021
Pericardial effusion is a rare but serious complication in cardiac electrophysiology procedures. To avoid progression to acute tamponade and reduce the risk of adverse patient outcomes, emergent pericardiocentesis is often necessary.

Effect of prednisolone on inflammatory markers in pericardial tuberculosis: A pilot study [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Pericardial disorders are a common cause of heart disease, and the most common cause of pericarditis in developing countries is tuberculous (TB) pericarditis.

Pericardiocentesis decompression syndrome: An uncommon complication of a common procedure

IHJ Cardiovascular Case Reports, 2019
We report a case of reversible left ventricular regional dysfunction after pericardiocentesis performed for imminent cardiac tamponade. This complication termed pericardiocentesis decompression syndrome is often unrecognised and underreported.

Emergency Veno-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Pericardial Decompression Syndrome

Case Reports in Cardiology, 2022
Background. Pericardiocentesis is a therapeutic lifesaving intervention for patients presenting with cardiogenic shock due to pericardial effusion with signs of tamponade.

Differences in outcomes between surgical pericardial window and pericardiocentesis in children with postpericardiotomy syndrome

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2023
Children with postpericardiotomy syndrome may develop hemodynamically significant pericardial effusions warranting drainage by surgical pericardial window or pericardiocentesis. The optimal approach is unknown.

Cardiac Tamponade Secondary to Metastasis from Adenocarcinoma of the Parotid Gland [PDF]

, 2003
BACKGROUND: Metastatic involvement of pericardium producing cardiac tamponade is rare. When occurs it is mainly from the lung, breast and the neoplasms of the lymphoreticular system.
