High glucose concentration in pericardial fluid: An indication for iatrogenic cardiac tamponade in a neonate

Year 2016, Volume: 29 Issue: 3, 189 - 191, 15.10.2016

Abstract

We present a case of neonatal pericardial tamponade due to umbilical

venous catheterization, a rare, but life threatening complication.

A newborn who developed sudden clinical deterioration at 44th

hour following umbilical venous catheterization, is reported.

Echocardiography showed marked pericardial effusion. Urgent

pericardiocentesis was performed. Analysis of pericardial fluid

revealed high glucose level consistent with the composition of

total parenteral nutrition fluid being infused through the catheter.

Pericardial tamponade should be considered in any infant with

a central venous catheter who suddenly deteriorates and urgent

pericardiocentesis should be attempted.

Perikard sıvısında yüksek glukoz konsantrasyonu: Yenidoğanda iyatrojenik perikardiyal tamponadın bir belirteci

Abstract

Umbilikal venöz kateterizasyon işlemi sonrasında gelişen nadir

fakat yaşamı tehdit edici komplikasyonlardan biri perikardiyal

tamponaddır. Yenidoğan bir bebekte umbilikal venöz kateterizasyon

işlemi sonrasında ani klinik kötüleşme ile prezente olan

perikardiyal tamponad olgusunu sunuyoruz. Ekokardiyografide

geniş perikardiyal effüzyon görülmüş ve acil perikardiyosentez

yapılmıştır. Perikardiyal sıvı analizinde umbilikal kateterden

gitmekte olan sıvı içeriğinin konsantrasyonunda glukoz

seviyesi bildirilmiştir. Perikardiyal tamponad, umbilikal venöz

kateterizasyon sonrasında ani klinik kötüleşme gösteren her

hastada akla gelmelidir ve acil perikardiyosentez uygulanmalıdır.
