Cardiac contusion, a condition characterized by the bruising or injury to the heart muscle, typically results from blunt chest trauma, such as that sustained in car accidents or severe falls. This injury can lead to a range of symptoms, including chest pain, irregular heart rhythms, and in some cases, complications like heart failure. Diagnosis often involves a combination of clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and electrocardiograms. While mild cases may resolve with rest and observation, severe cardiac contusions may require more intensive medical intervention. Prompt and accurate diagnosis is crucial for determining the appropriate course of treatment and minimizing potential complications associated with this cardiac injury.
