Next Warning signs of cardiac tamponade:
Shortness of breath, worsening when lying down
Tachycardia (rapid heartbeat)
Low blood pressure (low blood pressure caused by circulatory failure)
Neck vein distention
Chest pain (not always present)
Pulse paradoxe (a drop in blood pressure during inspiration)
