Study Overview

Brief Summary

The main aim of the study is to determine whether intramuscular injection of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can improve the ventricular function of children with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy(IDCM); Secondary end-points will be: 1)To explore the possible mechanism of the improvement of ventricular function in children with IDCM and 2) to evaluate the safety of intramuscular injection of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell.

Detailed Description

Children with Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy class II to III NYHA with ejection fraction over 20% were selected for phase II clinical trial, umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were injected into limb muscle and followed for 6 months.
