Tachycardia-induced Cardiomyopathy (Tachycardiomyopathy)
The term tachycardia-induced cardio-myopathy or tachycardiomyopathy refers to impairment in left ventricular function secondary to chronic tachycardia, which is partially or completely reversible once the tachyarrhythmia is controlled. Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy has been shown to occur both in experimental models and in patients with incessant tachyarrhythmia. Data from several studies ...
متن کاملTachycardia-Induced Cardiomyopathy
Background. Chronic supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) causes a dilated cardiomyopathy and myocyte injury. Termination of SVT improves left ventricular (LV) function but is associated with LV hypertrophy. Changes in myocardial blood flow (MBF) that may accompany the development of and recovery from SVT cardiomyopathy might have a significant effect on LV function and myocyte structure. The goal...
متن کاملTachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy
BACKGROUND Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TIC) is a rare cause of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP). The diagnosis can be missed because tachycardia is a common symptom in DCMP. CASE REPORT We reviewed a case 5-year-old with palpitation and dyspnea with symptoms and signs of heart failure that diagnosed as DCMP initially. Then, in the evaluation for cause of tachycardia, atrial tachycardia w...
متن کاملHypocalcemia and Tachycardia Induced Cardiomyopathy
In managing these patients, electrolytes like calcium and magnesium are important part of work-up, apart from those described by the authors. Both hypocalcemia and hypomagnesemia have been reported as causes of arrhythmias in children as well adults [2,3]. Since this child had two such episodes, he also needs to undergo electrophysiological study to look for any conduction pathway defect, which...
متن کاملVentricular Dysfunction: Tachycardia induced Cardiomyopathy
Tachycardia induced cardiomyopathy (TIC) is defined as atrial or ventricular dysfunction as a result of prolonged elevated heart rate that is reversible upon control of the arrhythmia. There may be no underlying structural heart disease primarily responsible for the cardiac dysfunction. We present some examples of arrhythmias causing TIC and the resolution of the ventricular dysfunction followi...
