Abstrakt: Purpose of Review: The objective of this manuscript is to examine up-to-date approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of pericardial effusions and cardiac tamponade.
Recent Findings: Recent recommendations from the American Society of Echocardiography and the European Society of Cardiology have improved our management of the patient with pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade, but significant knowledge gaps remain. Novel diagnostic and triage strategies have been suggested, and recent information have improved our facility to assess the presence and size of a pericardial effusion, assess its hemodynamic impact, and determine its cause. Despite these recent findings, there is a scarcity of evidence-based data to direct the management of pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade. While the first-line function of echocardiography in managing these disorders is undisputed, there are increasingly niche functions for multimodality imaging.
