Acute pericarditis generally lasts just a few weeks, whereas chronic pericarditis lasts longer, usually more than 6 months.

急性心包炎通常持续数周时间，而慢性心包炎持续时间较长，大于6个月。

When the inflammation persists for weeks to months, the process is called chronic pericarditis.

炎症持续数周甚至数月时，称为慢性心包炎。

So pericarditis means the pericardial layer of tissue that covers the heart has inflammation.

心包炎是指心脏表层心包膜发生的炎症反应。

The buildup of toxins can also cause pericarditis which is inflammation of the lining of the heart.

毒素的累积也会引起心包炎，即心包的炎症。

There were also no cases of myocarditis or pericarditis — inflammation of the heart muscle or its lining.

试验中也没有心肌炎或心包炎的案例，这两种疾病分别是心脏肌肉或心脏外膜发炎。

There are a few ways to diagnose pericarditis and pericardial effusions.

诊断心包炎和心包积液的方法如下。

Other causes of pericarditis include cancer, radiation therapy in the chest, and even medications like penicillin, and certain anticonvulsants.

其他病因包括癌症、胸部放疗，甚至药物，如青霉素和一些抗惊厥药。

So this could be from like a pericardial fusion or pericarditis or something like that.

所以这可能来自心包融合或心包炎或类似的东西。

Now, the cause of acute pericarditis is usually idiopathic, meaning that we don't know what causes it.

急性心包炎通常是特发性的；特发性指原因不明。

Oh, yes, he'll...he'll live, but, uh, the doctor says he's at risk for something called pericarditis. Do you know anything about that?

是的，他--他会活下来，但是，嗯，医生说他有可能会有心包炎。你对那个有了解吗？
