Fibrinolytic therapy in subacute bacterial endocarditis: an experimental study.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Pericardial effusion has long been associated with low voltage of the surface electrocardiogram and its clinical utility is well known. The cause of this reduced QRS voltage has usually been attributed to short circuiting of the impulses by the pericardial fluid, but its precise mechanism has not been clearl...
