Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical characteristics of hospitalized patients with pericardial effusion.Methods Four hundred and sixty-three pericardial effusion patients (211 males and 252 females) aged 5-92 (57.1±19.4) years admitted to Peking University People's Hospital were divided into 5-39 years old group (n=92),40-59 years old group (n=138),and 60-92 years old group (n=233).Their clinical data were analyzed.Results The top 3 etilogical factors of pericardial perfusion were tumor (22.7％),immune disease (15.8％) and unknown reasons (14.7％).The incidence of pericardial effusion due to immune disease and hypothyroidism was significantly higher while that of pericardial effusion due to chronic renal disease and tuberculosis was significantly lower in female patients than in male patients (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The incidence of pericardial effusion due to immune disease,unknown reasons and hematopathy was significantly different in 3 groups (33.7％ vs 18.8％ vs 6.9％,9.8％ vs 8.0％ vs 20.6％,18.5％ vs 13.8％ vs 3.0％,P＜0.01).The most common risk factors for pericardial effusion were heart failure,infection,hypoproteinemia and renal insufficiency,with infection accounting for 61.6％.Conclusion ≥1risk factors can aggravate pericardial effusion in most pericardial effusion patients
