Cardiac tamponade

open access: yesNature 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

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 ...

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

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, 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
