Clinical characteristics and etiological analysis of 492 in-patients with pericardial effusion
Objective To retrospectively analyze the distribution characteristics of etiology in patients with pericardial ef-fusion of different age groups,so as to provide reference for preclinical diagnosis.Methods The clinical data of 492 hospi-talized patients who met diagnostic criteria for pericardial effusion from January 2021 to May 2022 were collected,and pa-tients were divided into adolescent group(≤29 years old),middle-aged group(30-59 years old),and senior group(≥60 years old)according to age.And the composition of etiology in different age groups was compared and analyzed.Results The top five etiologies were pulmonary infections(22.56%),lung cancer(11.79%),renal disease(7.32%),systemic lupus erythematosus(6.30%),and heart failure(4.27%).Among the primary causes,the adolescent group(≤29 years old)was autoimmune disease,the middle-aged group(30-59 years old)was tumor disease,and the senior group(≥60 years old)was infectious disease.Conclusion Among the primary causes of pericardial effusion,adolescents are autoim-mune diseases,middle-aged people are malignant tumors,and the elderly are infectious diseases.
