BACKGROUND There is an increased risk of automobile accidents in patients with some cardiovascular disorders and licensing authorities have imposed certain restrictions on such persons. Experience assessing fitness to drive among drivers with cardiovascular disorders, and the relevance of other associated medical conditions among drivers assessed as unfit, are reported here. METHODS AND RESUL...

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a universal health problem that defined the situations impact on heart or blood vessels, it is related to overgrowth and accumulation of fatty deposits within lumen arteries which might lead formation clots (cardiovascular disease, 2018). Also, CVD can be described as group vascular disorders include coronary artery peripheral deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary em...

Turner's syndrome is a disorder defined by an absent or structurally abnormal second X chromosome and affects around 1 in 2000 newborn females. The standardised mortality ratio in Turner's syndrome is around three-times higher than in the general female population, mainly as a result of cardiovascular disorders. Most striking is the early age at which Turner's syndrome patients develop the life...

Over the last 2 decades, major advances have been made in our identification and understanding of the genetic basis of cardiovascular disease. More than 40 cardiovascular disorders have now been identified to be directly caused by single-gene defects. These disorders span all aspects of cardiovascular disease and affect all parts of the heart structure. They include the inherited cardiomyopathi...

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Neuromuscular disorders (NMD) have a wide range different cardiac presentations. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) has an established role in diagnosis and risk stratification. We sought to access how CMR performs predicting events real cohort NMD patients (pts). Methods included consecutive pts followed tertiary clinica...
