References

• In cases of incomplete response to aspirin/NSAIDs and colchicine, corticosteroids may be added at low to moderate doses as triple therapy.
• Low- to medium-dose corticosteroids should be considered for patients with pericarditis only in cases of contraindication/failure of aspirin/NSAIDs and colchicine, or when there is a specific indication to control symptoms and reduce recurrences.
• Clinical remission is defined as full regression of symptoms, as well as normalisation of laboratory results (e.g. C-reactive protein, troponin levels) and investigations (ECG, evidence of PEff, CMR evidence of active inflammation).
