👉 The Bracket Fluid, also known as Bracket Cardiac Fluid or Pericardial Fluid, is a clear, colorless liquid found within the pericardial sac surrounding the heart. It acts as a lubricant, allowing the heart to move smoothly within the chest cavity during each heartbeat. Additionally, Bracket Fluid serves as a protective cushion, absorbing shocks and reducing friction between the heart and the surrounding structures. When there's an abnormal amount of fluid in this sac, it can indicate various cardiac conditions, such as pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium) or heart failure.
