Objective: Today, despite many recent improvements in intraoperative management and postoperative care, late pericardial effusions remain an important cause of morbidity after cardiac surgery. Because of widespread use of chronic anticoagulation and increased complexity of operations, the incidence of effusion may be higher. Thus we need to update the information on the symptoms, risk factors, diagnostic methods and treatment of Postoperative pericardial effusion syndrome. Patients and methods: A cross-sectional and prospective study of all patients admitted to hospital because of pericardial effusion after open heart surgery from 1/2010 to 9/2012. Study the clinical characteristics, paraclinicals, evaluate the results of treatment of pericardial effusion after open heart surgery. Results: Symptoms of pericardial effusion are nonspecific. Some patients with pericardial effusion report minimal problems. In the present study, few patients have the classic presentation of tamponade. Echocardiography is the diagnostic accuracy pericardial effusion after open heart surgery. This treatment mainly is pericardial drainage with 100%. Conclusion: Pericardial effusion is a common complication after open-heart surgery, symptoms of pericardial effusion are nonspecific to diagnostic method is echocardiographic surveillance.patients can be treated with internal medicine if has no tamponade and less fliuds. Pericardial drainage is absolute only in patients with pericardial effusion with signs of cardiac tamponade or pericardial many of effusion.

Background Pericardial effusion is still a common postoperative complication after open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Pericardial effusion significantly prolongs the hospital stay and associated costs as well as affecting overall outcomes after open heart surgery in Hanoi Heart Hospital, a tertiary hospital in Vietnam with an annual volume of 1000 patients. This study aimed to investigate the clinical presentation, incidence, and risk factors of postoperative pericardial effusion, which may ensure better prevention of pericardial effusion and improvement in surgical outcomes after open heart surgery. Methods A cross-sectional study was performed on 1127 patients undergoing open heart surgery from January 2015 to December 2015. Results Thirty-six (3.19%) patients developed pericardial effusion. Of these, 16 (44.4%) had cardiac tamponade. Pericardial effusion occurred after valve procedures in 77.8% of cases. Pericardial effusion was detected after discharge in 47.2% of cases at a mean time of 18.1 ± 13.7 days. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age > 25 years, body surface area ≥ 1.28 m2, preoperative liver dysfunction, New York Heart Association class III/IV, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter z score ≥ 0.55, and postoperative anticoagulant use were associated with postoperative pericardial effusion. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that left ventricular end-diastolic diameter z score ≥ 0.55 was an independent risk factor for postoperative pericardial effusion. Conclusions Routine postoperative echocardiography is necessary to detect postoperative pericardial effusion. Increased left ventricular end-diastolic dimension is an independent predictor of postoperative pericardial effusion.
