IDCM:PROGNOSTIC FEATURES
VENTRICULOGRAPHIC FINDINGS
Degree of impairment in LVEF
Extent of left ventricular enlargement
Coexistent right ventricular dysfunction
Ventricular mass/volume ratio
Global wall motion abnormalities
Left ventricular sphericity
CLINICAL FINDINGS
Favorable prognosis: NYHA < IV, younger age, female
sex
Poor prognosis: Syncope, persistent S3 gallop, rightsided heart failure, AV or bundle branch block,
hyponatremia, troponin elevation, increased BNP,
maximum oxygen uptake < 12 mg/kg/min

Global myocardial blood flow reserve (dipyridamoleinduced) is diminished in DCM patients compared to
controls using PET imaging
Low myocardial blood flow reserve correlates with high
left ventricular wall stress and anaerobic metabolism
