Electrocardiographic and clinical characteristics of idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy in children.
BACKGROUND Idiopathic restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM) is not a single disease and is rare. METHODS AND RESULTS The clinical features and clinical course of 12 pediatric patients with RCM seen between 1978 and 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. The age at diagnosis ranged from 4 months to 12 years (median 4 years). The age of 7 patients diagnosed because of an abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG...
متن کاملCLINICAL INVESTIGATION Idiopathic 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 کاملClinical 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 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...
متن کاملThe clinical and CMR Characteristics of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Restrictive Phenotype
Results Patients of HCM with restrictive phenotype have more severe clinical symptoms including sustained artrial fibrillation, pericardial effusion, and worse heart function classifications compared with controls; The left and right atrium diameter were 55.79 ± 5.34 mm and 61.33 ± 11.05 mm on MR, which were significantly greater than the controls (p < 0.001); The segments with late gadolinium ...
