Although incidence is rare, acute cardiac tamponade (CT) is a cardiovascular condition often resulting in a high mortality rate. In acute CT, rapid accumulation of fluid occurs in the pericardial sac and prevents the heart's chambers from adequately filling with blood, leading to reduced diastolic filling, diminished stroke volumes, and subsequent hemodynamic instability. Health care providers should be aware of at-risk patients and the earliest signs and symptoms because an acute CT is considered a medical emergency.
尽管发病率很低,但急性心脏压塞(CT)是一种心血管疾病,常导致高死亡率。在急性心脏压塞中,心包腔内液体迅速积聚,阻碍心脏腔室充分充血,导致舒张期充盈减少、每搏输出量降低,进而引发血流动力学不稳定。医疗服务提供者应了解高危患者以及最早的体征和症状,因为急性心脏压塞被视为医疗急症。
