Determinants of pericardial drainage for cardiac tamponade following cardiac surgery.
OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify independent risk factors predisposing toward postoperative surgical or percutaneous pericardial drainage following cardiac surgery, and to assess late survival. METHODS A retrospective review of preoperative, intra-operative and postoperative variables was conducted in 5818 patients, who underwent adult heart surgery in a 7-year time span (2002-2009). Pericardia...
متن کاملResistant pericardial tamponade.

متن کاملPurulent Pericardial Effusions with Pericardial Tamponade – Diagnosis and Treatment Issues
Purulent pericarditis is rarely encountered in the antibiotherapy era, mainly in immunosupressed patients, after cardiac operations, in septicemia. Diagnosis of purulent pericarditis is based upon the analysis of pericardial drainage, obtained through pericardiocentesis or preferably, through a surgical approach. The reported case has following peculiarities: clinical signs of false acute surgi...
متن کاملRobot-Assisted Pericardial Drainage
Pericardial effusions compress the heart, and lead to decrease in cardiac output with haemodynamic collapse. The treatment of PE remains experimental (i.e. not standardized, based on the clinician’s experience) due to lack of large randomized studies. Available treatments differ from observation with/ without anti-inflammatory chemotherapy to pericardiocentesis with/without percutaneus catheter...
