Pericarditis | Nursing Management, Treatment of Pericardial Effusion, Friction Rub, & Pericardium
Pericarditis nursing NCLEX review on the nursing management, causes, signs and symptoms (pericardial friction rub), complications (pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade), and treatments (pericardiocentesis or pericardiectomy). Pericarditis is the inflammation of the pericardium layer of the heart. The pericardium is a double layered sac that contains the fibrous pericardium and the serous pericardium. The serous pericardium is made up of two layers called the parietal pericardium and the visceral pericardium, which is also know as the epicardium. In between the parietal and visceral layer is the pericardial space that contains serous fluid called pericardial fluid. Causes of pericarditis include illness, trauma, autoimmune or idiopathic. There are two types of pericarditis, acute and chronic. Acute lasts for less than 6 weeks. While chronic pericarditis lasts more than 6 months. Chronic pericarditis can lead to constrictive pericarditis which is thickening of the pericardium that constricts heart filling. This leads to signs and symptoms of heart failure. Treatment for this is a pericardiocentesis. Signs and symptoms of pericarditis include: pericardial friction rub, fever, chest pain, pain while lying in the supine position, and ST segment elevation on an EKG. Treatments for pericarditis include aspirin or NSAIDS or Colchicine or corticosteroids.

Sarah, you mean the world to me; I will never thank you enough but all I can say is that you are my hero. I first struggled when I started my nursing course, but ever since I discovered you, you have made a whole difference, thanks you and keep up the good work. you are the best instructor ever!
I don’t know how you do it, but any complicated subject you explain so easily! I’m never confused on your lectures!!!!! We could never thank you enough
Nurse Sarah, You are awesome. I am doing an LPN to RN online program and as I have a family and a job I don't have time to always read the textbood. Your videos have helped me with questions on my tests. You are great. I recommend you to my classmates. and my friends. I am on my last class in the RN program.. Couldn't have gotten thru it without you. Thank you
I watched your videos and took your quizzes while in nursing school and they helped me immensely to pass my tests and NCLEX. Now 6 years later, your videos and quizzes have helped me pass my pathophysiology class in my MSN program. Thank you!!!!
You explained this better than the physicians on KZread. Good job and thank you!
Your videos are wonderful! They have saved me time and time again in nursing school. My teacher has assigned your videos over our text books at times because they go into so much more detail! Thank you :)

Thank you so much.you really survived me from medical surgical nursing exam of tomorrow
I’m 25 and I’ve had all these symptoms a couple times before. At the time of writing this, I’m feeling this again and it sucks. It’s been all day, and considering going to the hospital, but may not considering there isn’t much to do about it.
Thanks again Nurse Sarah for your wonderful videos! I cannot express my appreciation enough. You are helping my success throughout nursing school and thanks to your videos I have great grades!
You're my nursing hero. Period.
Your videos are too much helpful for me.thankyou mam for your hardwork for this.
Suscribed. Love your teaching style. Studying for pathophysiology. Your video is very helpful. Thank u.
My son had a small hole in pericardium mussles. Each heart beat we used hear wood sawing sound. He was 2 years. Doctor told us to wait upto 8yrs age. If not cured to go heart operation. God is great it healed on its own.

You help me understand every topic I have trouble with understanding and I cant thank you enough. Thank you for all that you do!
Always the best videos
I love the videos! I took the quiz and number 5 says " You are providing discharge teaching to a patient being discharged home after hospitalization with pericarditis. The physician has ordered the patient to take Colchicine. Which of the following statements indicate the patient understood your education about how to take this medication?" the answer the website says is correct is "I like to take all my medications with grape fruit juice" I thought that increased toxicity risks so the pt shouldn't take it? is this a misprint? thanks again for all the videos!!

Hello Kayla :) Thank you so much for watching my videos and for using the quizzes. Yes, you are right...the question should read "Which of the following statements indicate the patient did NOT understand the education you provided? " I've corrected it! THANK YOU so much for taking the time to let me know so I could fix it!
