Overview
The cardiac tamponade is most often attributed to the rupture of an acute myocardial infarction or an intrapericardial rupture of a dissecting ascending aortic aneurysm. In developed countries malignancy is the leading cause of cardiac tamponade secondary to pericardial effusion.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence of cardiac tamponade based on a giant sample size of about 216 million emergency admissions was about 115,638(0.05%)[1]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- Cardiac temponade mortality rate is significantly different due to its underlying cause.[2][1]
- Overall, hospitalized mortality rate is around 14.3% and sub groups with higher mortality are :
- Sepsis (odds ratio:3.17)
- Chest trauma (odds ratio:2.15)
- Metastatic cancer:(odds ratio:1.90)
- Acute kidney injury(odds ratio:1.91)
- Idiopathic pericarditis (odds ratio: 0.21, least cause of mortality)
s
Age
Race
- There is no racial predilection to cardiac tamponade.
Gender
- Cardiac tamponade affects men and women equally.
- There is no study suggesting a meaningful sex difference among diagnosed patients.
Approximate Health Care cost In US
- It needs around 12 days of hospitalization and a mean cost of $160,397.
