| PubMedID- 21912031 | To evaluate the clinical course of pericarditis in patients with chronic kidney disease (ckd), we studied echocardiography in 64 ckd patients and subdivided them into four groups according to their ckd condition and presence of effusion: 14 (22%) patients with pericardial effusion that formed during conservative treatment of ckd patients, 12 (19%) patients who developed the effusion while on regular hemodialysis, 31 (48%) ckd patients without pericardial effusion, and seven (11%) ckd patients with minimal effusion. |
