Pericardial injury by antibacterial irrigants

JM Kratz, JS Metcalf and RM Sade

We injected antibacterial solutions into rabbit pericardium to investigate tissue injury. Povidone-iodine was the only irrigant found to cause substantial damage. These data lend experimental support to recent clinical observations that suggest a causal relation between pericardial irrigation with povidone-iodine and the later development of constrictive pericarditis.
