Endocarditis, Pericarditis, & Cardiac Tamponade can all present with chest related complaints, but the NCLEX® wants you to spot the one key clue that changes your next step. This video helps you separate them quickly and pick the correct priority intervention.

What you will learn:
• Endocarditis, infection of the inner lining or valves, why vegetations form and how they cause emboli
• Risk factors the NCLEX loves, IV drug use, poor dental hygiene, recent dental procedures, prosthetic valves
• Assessment findings, fever, new murmur, Roth spots, Osler nodes, Janeway lesions, splinter hemorrhages
• Diagnostics and treatment basics, blood cultures, echocardiogram, then IV antibiotics for weeks via PICC
• Teaching points, aseptic PICC care, daily temp monitoring, prophylactic antibiotics before invasive procedures
• Pericarditis clues, sharp pleuritic pain worse lying flat, relief when sitting up or leaning forward, friction rub, diffuse ST elevation
• Tamponade recognition, Beck triad plus pulsus paradoxus
• Nursing priority, stabilize if needed and prep for pericardiocentesis right away
