Implication

These ECG signs may support pericardial effusion evaluation; leaves open need for prospective validation against imaging.

Structured PICO

I
Intervention
Electrocardiogram

The electrocardiogram provides highly suggestive signs (low voltage, ST-segment elevation, and electrical alternans) that support the diagnosis of pericardial effusion.

Cite This Study

Pierre Nizet (1966) studied this question.
