Today’s video is all about cardiac tamponade for Nursing Students and NCLEX Review.

Cardiac tamponade occurs when fluid builds up around the heart, restricting its ability to expand and contract with each beat. Patients experience this condition if there's fluid leaking from somewhere else in their chest or abdominal cavity (such as a hemorrhage).

Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency, and if left untreated can result in a dramatic drop in blood pressure that kills the patient.

    My pt had this after an angio. That's why I'm here. And she was only dangerously hypotensive, ALOC and cool clammy skin. It was such a scary experience. But very interesting

    I wish you went more into the nursing interventions, like what would we do ? Administer fluids to increase BP?
