Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a syndrome characterized by cardiac enlargement and impaired systolic function of one or both ventricles. Due to increased awareness of this condition along with improvement in diagnostic techniques, dilated cardiomyopathy is being recognized as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The current study aimed at understanding DCM in correlation with electrocardiographic and echocardiographic less than 40 year patients.

Diagnosis of dilated cardiomyopathy done by echocardiography. Results: Both males and females were affected but and middle aged male population were found to be predominantly affected. Ventricular ectopics,Sinus tachycardia,Left and right bundle branch block and ST-T changes were common ECG abnormalities.
