Pericardiocentesis under echocardiographic guidance.
We thank Drs Tsang and Seward for their interesting comments. The Mayo Clinic’s important experience in echoguided pericardiocentesis was cited in our paper. However, the approach we described is technically different. In Europe, the Marfan’s approach, or subxiphoid puncture proposed by Marfan, is routinely used in cardiac tamponade, in which a swinging heart is frequently present. The most com...
متن کاملTension 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 pericardiocentesis electrode needle.
Pericardial aspiration is more difficult and hazardous than aspiration of other serous cavities. If the aspirating needle is introduced too far, it may injure or tear the myocardium, resulting in hwemopericardium, or induce ventricular fibrillation. The dangers are increased if the effusion is small, or if aspiration is performed as a diagnostic procedure to distinguish an effusion from a cardi...

Yet read these books and you find ample evidence of the importance of communication in anesthesia practice. The word derives from the Latin communicare, meaning to impart, participate. Anesthesiologists, other he...
