Acute Pericarditis

Acute inflammatory pericarditis with preserved reference hemodynamics. Select transient constriction or resolution explicitly; neither is an inevitable next stage.

Overview

Select Acute Pericarditis under Clinical controls → Pericardial disease. The bold italic live label confirms the active selection. These are the preset’s teaching features; combined disease, rate and interventions can change the resulting numbers.

Acute inflammatory pericarditis with preserved reference hemodynamics. Select transient constriction or resolution explicitly; neither is an inevitable next stage.

Inflammation may cause a pericardial friction rub and a typical diffuse ST/PR ECG pattern; these findings are not universal or diagnostic in isolation.

This example does not assume myocardial dysfunction, a large effusion or tamponade. Add other conditions separately.

Transient inflammatory constriction is a potentially reversible subset with restricted filling and ventricular respiratory discordance; no recovery timeline or treatment response is predicted.

Step by step

  1. Reset interventions if you want the untreated example.
  2. Select the condition and inspect the pressure summary and relevant waveforms.
  3. Pause for annotations; add one intervention or loading change to compare the response.
