31
Q

what is a cardiac tamponae

A

compression of heart by fluid in pericardial space that decreases CO

32

increased HR
pulsus paradoxus
absent y descent (flwo of blood from RA to RV)

34
Q

what does ECG show in cardiac tamponade?

A

low voltage QRS

electrical alternans - due to swinging movement of heart in large effusion
