Percutaneous pericardiocentesis for pericardial effusion: predictors of mortality and outcomes [PDF]
, 2021 Pericardial effusion can dangerously precipitate patient’s hemodynamic stability and requires prompt intervention in case of tamponade. We investigated potential predictors of in-hospital mortality, a composite outcome of in-hospital mortality ...

Asymptomatic Pneumopericardium with Atrial Fibrillation after Pericardiocentesis: A Case Report
Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2019 Air inside the pericardial cavity is called “pneumopericardium”, which is a rare complication of pericardiocentesis. Pneumopericardium may resolve spontaneously or can complicate into tension pericardium, requiring urgent aspiration. We herein describe a
