Pediatric pericarditis

Pediatric pericarditis is an inflammation of the pericardium, the thin, double-layered sac surrounding the heart. This condition can cause chest pain and other symptoms in children and requires prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent complications.

Symptoms of Pediatric Pericarditis 

  • Chest Pain: Sharp, stabbing pain that can worsen with deep breaths or lying down and improve with sitting up and leaning forward.
  • Fever: Often accompanies infectious causes.
  • Pericardial Friction Rub: A scratchy or squeaky sound heard with a stethoscope.
  • Shortness of Breath: Due to fluid accumulation around the heart (pericardial effusion).
  • Fatigue and General Malaise: Non-specific symptoms that may be present.

Pediatric pericarditis while often treatable, requires careful evaluation and management to prevent complications and ensure a full recovery. A multidisciplinary approach involving pediatricians, cardiologists, and other specialists is essential for optimal care.
