ABSTRACT
Pericardiocentesis was performed in 20 patients using a 7F diagnostic catheter in a cardiac catheterisation laboratory under fluoroscopic control, with haemodynamic and electrocardiographic monitoring. This technique offers several advantages over the bedside technique which utilises a sharp needle. The technique utilised for percutaneous aspiration is safe and simple and allows complete drainage of fluid. The haemodynamic monitoring before and after drainage aids in detecting cases of effusive constriction.
