We had included only the patients with cardiac tamponade, excluded those coded for pericardial effusion. The feasibility of comparison of the databases of two regions needs to be evaluated. There are some inherent limitations for the studies carried out from the National In-patient Samples (NIS) database.
我们仅纳入了患有心脏压塞的患者,排除了编码为心包积液的患者。两个地区数据库比较的可行性需要评估。利用国家住院样本(NIS)数据库开展的研究存在一些固有局限性。
