[Heart injuries: diagnosis and therapy].

The clinical manifestation of wounds of the heart is determined by the mode, site and size of the injury as well as the structure of the pericardial and myocardial lesion. Diagnosis can be confirmed by ECG and echocardiography. Only 20% of the patients with penetrating wounds of the heart live for more than 30 minutes. Pericardio-centesis should be used only to gain time for a safe sternotomy, cardiac decompression and suture of the wound of the heart. An aggressive surgical approach is mandatory. Cardiopulmonary bypass is necessary only to correct of concomitant lesions.

Heart injury in head-injured adolescents.

Of 19 adolescents (ages 10-18) admitted consecutively because of major blunt-impact trauma, 15 had head injuries (Glasgow coma scales 4-15). Eight had cardiac injury (42%), as demonstrated by cardiac wall-motion studies utilizing ECG-gated radionuclide angiography. Of the head-injured patients, 7 had cardiac injury (47%), and of these, one died in cardiac shock. Significant cardiac injury is known both experimentally and clinically to escape detection by conventional methods and a compromised cardiac output may bode ill for a damaged brain if cerebral perfusion pressure is in jeopardy.
