Abstract
Introduction: Pericardiocentesis may be an emergency procedure to relieve pericardial effusion with Tamponade. The fluid from this procedure is examined and sent for further investigation which may guide the line of management and improve patient outcome. With the advancement of expertise in echocardiography assisted procedures, echocardiography-guided diagnostic and therapeutic pericardiocentesis is now considered standard clinical practice in the treatment of pericardial effusions.
