Dilated Dilated CardiomyopathyCardiomyopathy
Dilation and impaired systolic function of left or both ventricles
Most common type of cardiomyopathy in children Up to 50% 0.5 - 8 per 100 000 children
![Page 12: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
PresentationPresentation Initial signs and symptoms may be very
vague Irritability Anorexia Abdominal pain Cough (from pulmonary congestion)
![Page 13: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
PresentationPresentation Signs and symptoms of CHF
Poor systolic function Limited cardiac output
Ventricles enlarge and myocardium hypertrophies in an effort to maintain cardiac output
Enlargement of ventricles increases systolic wall tension in ventricle and increases myocardial oxygen consumption
![Page 14: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
PresentationPresentation Decreased cardiac output decreases renal
blood flow Enhances renin-angiotensin system Fluid retention (necessary to maintain output)
Stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system increased heart rate
Valvular regurg – dilation of the valve annulus Further myocardial oxygen demand
![Page 15: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

TreatmentTreatment Look for an identifiable cause and treat it!
Majority of patients however have no specific etiology identified
![Page 23: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
TreatmentTreatment Afterload reduction to improve forward
failure
Diuretics as needed for symptoms of backward failure
Inotropic agents to improve symptomatic forward failure
![Page 24: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
TreatmentTreatment Treatment is supportive
Either the process resolves The heart improves Or the heart is transplanted
![Page 25: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Natural HxNatural Hx Extremely variable
Transient dysfunction with complete recovery and minimal symptoms
Rapid progression to cardiogenic shock and death
Anything in between
Most deaths occur within the first 6 months to 2 years after presentation

Hypertrophic Hypertrophic CardiomyopathyCardiomyopathy
Left ventricular disease
Thickening of the ventricular wall
Nondilated
![Page 28: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Hypertrophic Hypertrophic CardiomyopathyCardiomyopathy
Can be symmetric or asymmetric Asymmetric hypertrophy can obscure outflow
tract (HOCM – hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy)
Diagnosis is appropriate only after other causes of left ventricular hypertrophy are excluded
![Page 29: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
CausesCauses Can be divided into:
Primary (genetic mutation) Secondary
Obstructive congenital heart disease Inborn error of metabolism

CausesCauses Familial
Most often autosomal dominant Wide variability in penetrance Often denovo Generally worse prognosis with early signs of
disease

PresentationPresentation Up to 50% of cases present
asymptomatically Evaluation of a murmur Screening due to a family history
Chest pain
Exercise intolerance
Arrhythmia
Near death event
![Page 33: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
TreatmentTreatment Supportive
Important to maintain preload and avoid hypovolemia
No role for afterload reduction or inotropic support (systolic function usually ok)
Use of beta blockers, calcium channel blockers Prevention of sudden death debatable May reduce symptoms
![Page 34: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
TreatmentTreatment Indications for ICD treatment
Family history Severe hypertrophy History of ventricular arrhythmia Near sudden death

Restrictive Restrictive CardiomyopathyCardiomyopathy
Restriction of flow into the ventricles
Accounts for less than 5% of cardiomyopathies in children

PathophysiologyPathophysiology Abnormal relaxation of ventricular
myocardium
Decreased ventricular compliance
Altered diastolic filling Increased ventricular end-diastolic pressure Elevated atrial pressure Enlargement of atrium

CausesCauses Idiopathic
Systemic disease Scleroderma Amyloidosis Sarcoidosis
Inborn errors of metabolism Mucopolysaccharidosis Hypereosinophilia
Radiation
Malignancy
Noncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium
![Page 39: Case Rounds](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062309/56813a0c550346895da1dead/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
TreatmentTreatment Medical treatment has limited success
Pay close attention to fluid balance High atrial pressures required for adequate
preload If atrial pressures too high, may lead to
congestion Difficult to achieve adequate balance
Usually require early consideration for transplant
