The aim of this study was to describe the incidence of cardiac chamber collapse assessed by echocardiography and explore possible mechanisms in a clinical population of 116 patients with pleural effusion in the absence of pericardial effusion. We found that the frequency of chamber collapse was 18% in patients with pleural effusion in the absence of pericardial effusion, thus cardiac chamber collapse occurs in patients with pleural effusion.
本研究的目的是描述通过超声心动图评估的心腔塌陷发生率,并在116例无心包积液的胸腔积液临床患者中探讨可能的机制。我们发现,在无心包积液的胸腔积液患者中,心腔塌陷的发生率为18%,因此胸腔积液患者会发生心腔塌陷。
