Core Tip	Cough-induced syncope should be a hint towards the consideration of either pericardial effusion or cardiac tamponade. Aside from the medical history and the diagnostic imaging modalities to include echocardiogram and chest computed tomography, clinical evaluation to explore pulsus paradoxus is impera­tive which has a high sensitivity in the diagnosis of cardiac tamponade. Timely diagnosis of cardiac tamponade because of these clues translate into prompt intervention to prevent the deleterious complications associated with it.
