Sudden cardiac death- MedGen UID:
- 38841
- •Concept ID:
- C0085298
- •
- Pathologic Function
The heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating resulting in death within a short time period (generally within 1 h of symptom onset).
Primary dilated cardiomyopathy- MedGen UID:
- 2880
- •Concept ID:
- C0007193
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Familial dilated cardiomyopathy is a genetic form of heart disease. It occurs when heart (cardiac) muscle becomes thin and weakened in at least one chamber of the heart, causing the open area of the chamber to become enlarged (dilated). As a result, the heart is unable to pump blood as efficiently as usual. To compensate, the heart attempts to increase the amount of blood being pumped through the heart, leading to further thinning and weakening of the cardiac muscle. Over time, this condition results in heart failure.\n\nIt usually takes many years for symptoms of familial dilated cardiomyopathy to cause health problems. They typically begin in mid-adulthood, but can occur at any time from infancy to late adulthood. Signs and symptoms of familial dilated cardiomyopathy can include an irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), shortness of breath (dyspnea), extreme tiredness (fatigue), fainting episodes (syncope), and swelling of the legs and feet. In some cases, the first sign of the disorder is sudden cardiac death. The severity of the condition varies among affected individuals, even in members of the same family.
Congestive heart failure- MedGen UID:
- 9169
- •Concept ID:
- C0018802
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
The presence of an abnormality of cardiac function that is responsible for the failure of the heart to pump blood at a rate that is commensurate with the needs of the tissues or a state in which abnormally elevated filling pressures are required for the heart to do so. Heart failure is frequently related to a defect in myocardial contraction.
Reduced left ventricular ejection fraction- MedGen UID:
- 868398
- •Concept ID:
- C4022792
- •
- Finding
A diminution of the volumetric fraction of blood pumped out of the ventricle with each cardiac cycle.
Reduced systolic function- MedGen UID:
- 870560
- •Concept ID:
- C4025008
- •
- Finding
Increased left ventricular end-diastolic volume- MedGen UID:
- 1660169
- •Concept ID:
- C4748648
- •
- Finding
Abnormally high volume of blood in the left ventricle at the end of diastole (just before systole).
Elevated circulating creatine kinase concentration- MedGen UID:
- 69128
- •Concept ID:
- C0241005
- •
- Finding
An elevation of the level of the enzyme creatine kinase (also known as creatine phosphokinase (CK; EC 2.7.3.2) in the blood. CK levels can be elevated in a number of clinical disorders such as myocardial infarction, rhabdomyolysis, and muscular dystrophy.
