Clinical profile of restrictive cardiomyopathy.
The characteristic hemodynamic features of restrictive cardiomyopathy (normal or reduced cardiac index, normal ventricular systolic function, and "dip and plateau" early in diastole) are traditionally associated with pathologic evidence of inflammation, infiltration and fibrosis. Prognosis is usually poor. Nine patients with restrictive hemodynamic features were recently identified in our labor...
متن کاملClinical Profile and Outcome of Idiopathic Restrictive Cardiomyopathy
Background—Idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy is a poorly recognized entity of unknown cause characterized by nondilated, nonhypertrophied ventricles with diastolic dysfunction resulting in dilated atria and variable systolic function. Methods and Results—Between 1979 and 1996, 94 patients (61% women) 10 to 90 years old (mean, 64 years) met strict morphological echocardiographic criteria for...

متن کاملCLINICAL INVESTIGATION Idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy
This report details the clinical, hemodynamic, and morphologic data from four patients 59 to 77 years old (mean 66) with a primary restrictive cardiomyopathy. All patients had symptoms of congestive heart failure, jugular venous distention, and murmurs of mitral and tricuspid regurgitation. Four patients required pacemakers, three for the brady-tachy syndrome and one for complete heart block. C...
متن کاملRestrictive Cardiomyopathy
Restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is a myocardial disorder that usually results from increased myocardial stiffness that leads to impaired ventricular filling. Biventricular chamber size and systolic function are usually normal or nearnormal until later stages of the disease. Affecting either or both ventricles, RCM may cause signs or symptoms of left or right heart failure. Arrhythmias and cond...
