His CT scan showed a 25-mm pericardial effusion. Routine blood tests showed a high-sensitivity troponin T rise from 264 to 417 ng/L. A bedside echocardiogram was performed which showed anteroseptal hypokinesis and pericardial effusion, but no tamponade. Initial ECG at the point of symptom ...
cardiac tamponade appears to be slightly more common in men than in women. A male-to-female ratio of 1.25:1 was observed at the author's referral center, based on the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) code 423.9. However, a male-to-female ...
