Abstract

Pericardiocentesis is a straightforward bedside procedure that has proven to be safe in experienced centers. However, it remains an invasive procedure, and the operator must be aware of potential complications. Periprocedural ultrasound facilitates a careful evaluation of the pericardium before the procedure, enabling the selection of the safest trajectory and the assessment of complications.
