Idiopathic cardiomyopathies are characterized by diversity of clinical manifestations, among which heart rhythm abnormalities are the most common. The authors carried out qualitative and quantitative evaluations of heart rhythm abnormalities in patients with dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies (DCMP, HCMP) and compared those abnormalities according to the data of daily ECG monitoring. Forty patients with DCMP and 30 with HCMP were examined. In 8 (25%) patients with DCMP and in 2 (6.7%) with HCMP, permanent atrial fibrillation was recorded. Among patients with sinus rhythm, supraventricular premature heart beats were found in 30 (96.8%) patients with DCMP and in 24 (85.7%) with HCMP. However, their number during 24 h exceeded 500 in 9 (29%) and in 7 (25%) patients, respectively. Supraventricular paroxysmal tachycardia (greater than or equal to 3 complexes at HR greater than or equal to 100/min) was recorded in 7 (22.6%) patients with DCMP and in 4 (14.3%) patients with HCMP. Ventricular premature heart beats were recorded in 38 (95%) patients with DCMP and in 21 (70%) patients with HCMP, polytopic in 31 (77.5% and 17 (56.7%), coupled in 227 (67.5%) and 10 (33.3%), ventricular paroxysmal tachycardia (greater than or equal to 3 complexes at HR greater than or equal to 100/min) in 22 (55%) and 5 (16.7%) patients, respectively. AV conduction abnormalities among patients with sinus rhythm were noted in DCMP and HCMP, in 12 (38.7%) and 1 (3.6%) cases, respectively. Thus, heart rhythm abnormalities are often encountered in both patients with DCMP and HCMP. However, in patients with DCMP, heart arrhythmias are graver and prognostically unfavourable.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead

D006327 Heart Block Impaired conduction of cardiac impulse that can occur anywhere along the conduction pathway, such as between the SINOATRIAL NODE and the right atrium (SA block) or between atria and ventricles (AV block). Heart blocks can be classified by the duration, frequency, or completeness of conduction block. Reversibility depends on the degree of structural or functional defects.

D006333 Heart Failure A heterogeneous condition in which the heart is unable to pump out sufficient blood to meet the metabolic need of the body. Heart failure can be caused by structural defects, functional abnormalities (VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION), or a sudden overload beyond its capacity. Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.
