English term

hemorrhagic tamponade

English to Italian Medical Medical: Cardiology Mechanical heart valves,
I know what a cardiac tamponade is, I wonder if hemorrhagic tamponade might be, in this instance, a shortening of hemorrhagic cardiac tamponade (and a superb example of utterly non-academic writing):
" Bleeding Events
Hemorrhage is defined as any episode of internal or external bleeding in patients whether or not they are receiving anticoagulant therapy. This also includes any episode of hemorrhagic tamponade. Any anticoagulants used and INR at the time of hemorrhage should be determined, if possible. These events will be classified as major or minor, and are defined as follows.
• Major: An episode of internal or external bleeding that causes death, stroke, operation, hospitalization, or requires transfusion or pericardiocentesis. Examples include nosebleeds that require outpatient transfusion, cerebral bleeding that results in neurological damage and/or death, and gastrointestinal bleeding that requires hospitalization."

tamponamento pericardico

This happens when there's blood accumulating around the heart, and the pericardium contains it and doesn't let it come out. It's a serious emergency.
