Cardiac tamponade is a serious clinical syndrome that often presents with the classic triad of hypotension, jugular vein distention and diminished or muffled heart sounds on auscultation (Beck's Triad). This phenomenon occurs due to fluid accumulation in the pericardial space which compresses the heart, reduces cardiac output and may cause cardiogenic shock. In this report, we present a case of a 22-year-old female with a congenital atrial septal defect (ASD) and right ventricular failure with tamponade physiology with an associated viral illness.
心脏压塞是一种严重的临床综合征，常表现为低血压、颈静脉怒张以及听诊时心音减弱或低沉（贝克三联征）这一经典三联征。这种现象是由于心包腔内积液，压迫心脏，降低心输出量，并可能导致心源性休克。在本报告中，我们呈现了一例22岁女性病例，该患者患有先天性房间隔缺损（ASD）及右心室衰竭，并伴有心包填塞生理改变及相关病毒感染。
