What is Cardiac Tamponade: Diagnosis & Treatment about?
Cardiac tamponade is a life-threatening condition caused by the accumulation of pericardial fluid, leading to impaired cardiac filling and decreased output. Common causes include malignancy, uremia, and pericarditis, with symptoms such as dyspnea and hypotension. Immediate treatment involves pericardiocentesis and potential surgical intervention to prevent reaccumulation.
