Echocardiography
- Approximately one third of the patients with symptomatic pericardial effusion can develop cardiac tamponade.[1]
- A baseline echocardiography is indicated in HIV patients regardless of the stage of the disease, or in patients with evidence of heart failure, Kaposi's sarcoma, and tuberculosis.[2]
The echocardiogram below demonstrates a swinging motion of the heart in a patient with a cardiac tamponade.[3][4] {{#ev:youtube|q9p0nlccOwU}}
