Question 8

what are the tests for blood around the heart?

Accepted Answer

Echocardiogram: This is usually diagnosed with echocardiography, an ultrasound of the heart. A chest x-ray can show an enlarged heart shadow, but this can be caused by other things. The echocardiogram can only indicate fluid and doesn't differentiate between blood and other fluid. The definitive diagnosis is made when the fluid is removed by inserting a needle or tube into the space around the heart.

Question 9

my daughter has blood around the heart. how will this affect her?

Accepted Answer

Hemopericardium: This condition is called "hemopericardium". How it will affect her and what the treatment and prognosis are, is dependent upon a lot of factors. Without knowing her age, other diseases and underlying causes, a definitive answer is impossible. It can range from benign if associated with a viral infection to not so good if associated with cancer...

Question 10

what is the treatment for blood around the heart?

Accepted Answer

Cardiac physiology: Blood moves from the heart into the aorta as oxygenated blood under the force of the systolic contraction.  Arterial blood passes through the nonpulsatile microcirculation passively based on the tone of the afferent and efferent arterioles and venules. Once back in the venous microcirculation the veins coalesce and form veins taking blood to the heart by internal valves and compression by muscles.
