  2. Pulsus paradoxus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsus_paradoxus

    Pulsus paradoxus, also paradoxic pulse or paradoxical pulse, is an abnormally large decrease in stroke volume, systolic blood pressure (a drop more than 10 mmHg) and pulse wave amplitude during inspiration. Pulsus paradoxus is not related to pulse rate or heart rate, and it is not a paradoxical rise in systolic pressure.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicoladoni–Branham_sign

    The Nicoladoni–Branham sign (also called Branham's sign, the Nicoladoni sign, or the Nicoladoni–Israel–Branham sign [1]) is named after Carl Nicoladoni, [1] who first noticed the phenomenon of the pulse slowing in a patient with right arm phlebarteriectasia [1] when the brachialis artery proximal to it was compressed.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ewart's_sign

    Ewart's sign is a set of findings on physical examination in people with large collections of fluid around their heart (pericardial effusions). [2]Dullness to percussion (described historically as "woody" in quality), egophony, and bronchial breath sounds may be appreciated at the inferior angle of the left scapula when the effusion is large enough to compress the left lower lobe of the lung ...

  8. Pericardial effusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pericardial_effusion

    Pulsus paradoxus is a phenomenon in which systolic blood pressure drops by 10 mmHg or more during inspiration. In cardiac tamponade, the pressure within the pericardium is significantly higher, hence decreasing the compliance of the chambers (the capacity to expand/ conform to volume changes).
