Alcoholic cardiomyopathy and ventricular arrhythmias.
We read with interest the article by Piano et al1 (May 2002) about alcoholic cardiomyopathy (ACM), with a complete clinical and physiopathologic overview on this leading cause of nonischemic heart failure. We agree with all the comments and conclusion of the author, and we thank Dr. Piano for the several citations of our work on this topic published in 2000.2 We would like to add a short commen...
متن کاملVentricular arrhythmias in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy.
Twenty four hour ambulatory electrocardiograms were recorded in 60 patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. The diagnosis was based on clinical, laboratory, and cardiac catheterisation findings. All patients had a left ventricular ejection fraction less than 0.55; in 39 it was less than 0.40. Ventricular extrasystoles were evident in all patients: they were rare in 11 (18%), moderately ...
متن کاملCan chronotropic incompetence predict life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in patients with stable ischemic heart disease?
Background: Chronotropic incompetence has prognostic value of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in both patients with asymptomatic and symptomatic ischemic heart disease (IHD), regardless of traditional risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between chronotropic response during exercise test and the development of ventricular arrhythmias. Methods: 153 pati...
متن کاملVentricular Remodeling In Ischemic Cardiomyopathy
Heart failure in the setting of reduced systolic pump function, if left untreated, is characterized by progressive ventricular dilation and dysfunction. Many of the major advances in pharmacologic treatments for heart failure achieved over the last two decades came with the recognition that this process, referred to as ventricular remodeling, results from abnormal mechanical stress on the myoca...
متن کاملVentricular arrhythmias and left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) could influence the development of ventricular arrhythmias. OBJECTIVE In HCM, analyze the association between the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias determined by Holter electrocardiogram (ECG-Holter) and the degree of LVH determined by maximum wall thickness (MWT) in echocardiography and body...
