  • Title: Thorough clinical investigation of low cardiac output syndrome after subxiphoid pericardiostomy.
    Author: Dosios T, Stefanidis A, Chatziantoniou C, Sgouropoulou S.
    Journal: Angiology; 2007; 58(4):483-6. PubMed ID: 17875962.
    Abstract:
    The paradoxical hemodynamic response after surgical or catheter pericardial drainage for cardiac tamponade is an infrequent complication. This case report describes this occasional ominous consequence of surgical pericardial decompression and suggests possible physiological explanations of rapidly progressive heart failure and death.
