Apr 9th, 2021 - Pericardial effusion drainage in patients with significant pulmonary hypertension (PH) has been questioned because of hemodynamic collapse concern, mainly because of right ventricular (RV) function challenging assessment. We aimed to assess RV fun...

Apr 6th, 2021 - Determining which patients with pericardial effusion require urgent intervention can be challenging. We sought to develop a novel, simple risk prediction score for patients with pericardial effusion. Adult patients admitted through the emergency d...

Mar 24th, 2021 - Chest tubes are routinely used after cardiac surgery to evacuate shed mediastinal blood. Incomplete chest drainage due to chest tube clogging can lead to retained blood after cardiac surgery. This can include cardiac tamponade, hemothorax, bloody ...

Nov 7th, 2014 - Echocardiography is one of the most powerful diagnostic and monitoring tools available to the modern emergency/ critical care practitioner. Currently, there is a lack of specific European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging/Acute Cardiovascular ...

Sep 5th, 2019 - Background: In 2018, a male aged 62 years with a history of squamous cell tonsillar cancer, which was successfully treated by concurrent chemoradiation and selective neck dissection in 2014, was diagnosed with primary right sided lung adenocarcino.

Feb 1st, 2019 - Figure 1. Radiography immediately after surgery showed cardiac tamponade, which led to repeat sternotomy with mediastinal washout.

Sep 27th, 2018 - Answer: B. Myocardial rupture Myocardial rupture is characterized by a laceration, or tearing, of the wall of the ventricles or atria of the heart. The most common cause of myocardial rupture is a recent myocardial infarction, with the rupture typ...

May 16th, 2018 - Discussion Purulent pericarditis is an infection localized within the pericardial space. Most cases are secondary to an infectious process elsewhere, which could be of bacterial, viral, fungal, or parasitic etiology.
