Everyone, Shut The F*ck Up!

The wound on the heart was closed with three stitches. The stitching was done perfectly. The tension was just right to hold the two parts together.

As the heart resumed its beating, the wound was no longer leaking blood.

Without the pericardial tamponade, the beating of the heart was no longer hindered.

Zheng Ren and Su Yun continued their exploration in the chest cavity. They checked the lungs for any damage.

The cardiac tamponade from the stab wound had been their number one priority.

There was a double-walled sac around the heart and the blood from the wound would be trapped in the pericardial space.

A larger wound on the heart would cause a faster bleed. As blood filled the pericardial space, the cardiac output was reduced.

The pressure buildup within the pericardium disrupts the rhythm of the heart. In a severe case, the pressure in the pericardial space overwhelms the pressure in the heart and the organ ceases function.
