The double-layered membrane surrounding the heart is called the pericardium. The pericardium is a thick, membranous sac that secretes a lubricating liquid. There is a thin inner layer that sits directly on and is attached to the surface of the heart, called the epicardium. There is a very small space, which usually has a very small amount of fluid, called the pericardial space, and a tough outer layer called the pericardium (peri = around and cardium = heart).
