CABG day 1. The night nurse says the CVP climbed, the pulse pressure vanished, and he looks mottled. You hear almost nothing. The catheter has stopped arguing with itself: RA 18, PAD 18, PCWP 18, CO 2.5. The y descent on the RA tracing is a rumor. This is minutes, not a formal pericardial window conference.
Untreated tamponade, massive PE, or a crashed CPO/PAPi will keep dropping MAP and climbing lactate. Name the tracing, then move.
