Tension Pneumopericardium after Pericardiocentesis.
Pneumopericardium is defined as the presence of air inside the pericardial space. Usually, it is reported as a complication of blunt or penetrating chest trauma, but rare iatrogenic and spontaneous cases have been reported. Pneumopericardium is relatively stable if it does not generate a tension effect on the heart. However, it may progress to tension pneumopericardium, which requires immediate...
متن کاملA Comparison between Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation and Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Ventilation in the Treatment of Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Background: Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is a non-invasive ventilatory mode, which delivers mechanical ventilation via nasal tubes or prongs. The present study was conducted to compare the efficacy of NIPPV and nasal continuous positive airway pressure ventilation (NCPAP) in reducing the need for intubation in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)....
متن کاملIdiopathic Chylothorax in a Term Neonate and Successful Treatment with Octreotide and Medium Chain Triglyceride -Enriched Formula: A Case Report
Background Chylothorax is defined as abnormal accumulation of lymphatic fluid in the pleural space secondary to leakage from thoracic duct or one of its main tributaries. Congenital idiopathic chylothorax is the most common form of pleural effusion in neonates. Conservative therapy is the mainstay of treatment. An alternative...
متن کاملTension pneumopericardium after removal of pericardiocentesis drainage catheter.
This image showed tension pneumopericardium caused by removing the pericardiocentesis catheter, which was inserted to drain malignant pericardial effusion. Tension pneumopericardium is a rare and potentially fatal event. Mortality from tension pneumopericardium can be as high as 50%. Therefore, it is important to suspect and detect early, if the patient complained of dyspnea after removing the ...
متن کاملDevelopment of massive pneumopericardium after intubation and positive pressure ventilation.
Pneumopericardium is a rare complication of chest trauma, mechanical ventilation and cavitating pneumonia. We report a case of a 7-year-old patient with chronic myeloid leukemia who developed massive pneumopericardium immediately after being electively intubated for a diagnostic radiological procedure in the setting of ongoing Enterococcal pneumonia. As intensive care medicine becomes more prev...
