    Abstract Pericarditis is an uncommon pathology that represents 0.1% of patients hospitalized for chest pain with a wide etiological spectrum and whose cause is uncommonly highlighted. In order to determine the incidence of specific acute microbiological or autoimmune pericarditis and identify subsets of patients with a higher incidence of specific etiologies; and analyze the conformity of the management of acute pericarditis according to the recommendations, a retrospective inclusion of all patients admitted to our hospital from January 2010 to December 2018 with the diagnosis of acute pericarditis was conducted. Data concerning clinical, paraclinical and treatment items were collected. Ninety-nine patients were included. Specific etiologic exams were completely conducted in 63.6% of the patients. There was no link between the decision to conduct etiology exams and the age, gender, a history of acute pericarditis or relapse. There was a trend between an elevated CRP and the realization of the kit. There was a statistically significant link between the achievement of etiologic exams and the presence of severity criteria or the presence of a pericardial effusion. An etiology was found in 52.4%, more frequently microbiological (viral and Mycoplasma pneumoniae). Approximately 85.9% of all patients were hospitalized. Treatment was in accordance with the recommendations in 76.8%. Despite the percentage of microbiological etiologies found, it does not impact the therapeutic strategy. The criteria for hospitalization must be better suited since half of those hospitalized after the european society of cardiology (ESC) 2015 recommendations had no need to be. However, monitoring after discharge is not clearly defined by learned societies.

    Author's details by Massimo Romanò
    Abstract This book combines clear explanatory text with a wealth of images of ECG recordings in order to provide an accessible, up-to-date source of information and guide to interpretation for all professionals seeking to increase their expertise in electrocardiography. ECG results are presented and discussed for a wide range of conditions, including all forms of arrhythmia, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, bundle branch blocks, ischemic cardiomyopathy, atrial and ventricular enlargement, pericardial and myocardial diseases, diseases of the pulmonary circulation, and post pacemaker implantation. Normal ECG findings are fully described, and helpful introductory information is included on the principles of electrophysiology. The practically oriented text accompanying the ECG recordings covers both electrophysiological and clinical aspects. More than 100 years after its first use by Willem Einthoven, electrocardiography continues to be the first diagnostic tool applied in most cardiac patients. This text atlas provides a sound basis for the correct ECG interpretation essential for appropriate patient management

    Abstract A pericardial effusion (PE) is a relatively common finding in clinical practice. It may be either isolated or associated with pericarditis with or without an underlying disease. The aetiology is varied and may be either infectious (especially tuberculosis as the most common cause in developing countries) or non-infectious (cancer, systemic inflammatory diseases). The management is essentially guided by the hemodynamic effect (presence or absence of cardiac tamponade), the presence of concomitant pericarditis or underlying disease, and its size and duration. The present paper reviews the current knowledge on the aetiology, classification, diagnosis, management, therapy, and prognosis of PE in clinical practice.
