简要总结
Randomized study of medication withdrawal in patients who have recovered LV function in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.
详细描述
Importance of the study:
There is a growing population of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) who had recovered left ventricular (LV) systolic function on medical therapy. Recent studies have shown a favorable clinical course in patients with DCM1-4. The heart failure (HF) guidelines states that discontinuation of medical therapy in this group of patients may be considered based on expert opinion. The safety of withdrawal of medical therapy needs further studies.
Hypothesis:
In Patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) who had recovery of the LV systolic function to a normal EF >50%, medical therapy withdrawal is attainable without Clinical deterioration or recurrence of LV systolic dysfunction.
