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 ...

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 ...

Chest, 2018
Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency that can be readily reversed with timely recognition and appropriate intervention. The clinical diagnosis of cardiac tamponade requires synthesis of a constellation of otherwise nonspecific features based on an understanding of the underlying pathophysiological characteristics.

Tamponade and the rule of tens
The Lancet, 2008In February, 2007, a 32-year-old man presented with a 3week history of shortness of breath on exertion. He had no important medical history and was not taking any medication. His blood pressure was 100/80 mm Hg, he had a sinus tachycardia of 110 beats per min, and a respiratory rate of 18 breaths per min.

Pericardial effusion, a common cardiac manifestation of myxedema,1,2is rarely associated with cardiac tamponade; to our knowledge, only 19 reports of this phenomenon appear in the English literature.3-7In all reported cases, identification of tamponade was largely derived from clinical and echocardiographic examination, and available hemodynamic data ...

New England Journal of Medicine, 1991
Acute cardiac tamponade is life threatening and requires prompt pericardial drainage. This review explains the manifestations of tamponade, including a presentation in which the diagnostic finding of pulsus paradoxus is absent, and variant forms, such as low-pressure tamponade and regional tamponade.

Pericardial effusions are frequently found in myxedema and , when present, are asymptomatic and usually of no hemodynamic consequence. We report a patient with ascites and pericardial effusion due to myxedema who developed cardiac tamponade following abdominal paracentesis.

Malignant pericardial tamponade
Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1990AbstractWe studied the clinical course and management of 27 patients with malignant pericardial tamponade seen in a single Medical Center over a 10 year period. Patients treated with repeat pericardial tap as their only mode of therapy had a high rate of recurrent tamponade (6 of 13 subjects) whereas most patients treated with drainage (either surgical
