  • 2. At least two positive serological tests for Chagas disease (indirect immunofluorescence, indirect hemagglutination, OR Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay [ELISA]) and at least ONE of the following markers of cardiac involvement (which identify individuals at high risk of progression):
  • 2.1. Abnormal 12 lead Electrocardiogram (ECG): One-major criteria (second or third degree AV block) OR at least two minor criteria:
  • 2.1.1. Any bundle branch block
  • 2.1.2. Any fascicular block
  • 2.1.3. Ventricular premature beats (greater than one)
  • 2.1.4. First degree AV block greater than 220 ms, in the absence of drugs that slow AV node conduction
  • 2.1.5. Mobitz type I AV block, in the absence of drugs that slow AV
  • 2.1.6. Sinus bradycardia less than 50 bpm or sinus pauses greater than 3.0s, in the absence of sinus node blocking drugs
  • 2.1.7. Low voltage of QRS in the frontal plane
  • 2.1.8. Atrial fibrillation
  • 2.2. Increased cardiothoracic ratio greater than 0.50 at baseline on upright chest X ray
  • 2.3. Evidence of regional wall motion abnormality (hypokinesis, akinesis or dyskinesis) or reduced global Left Ventricular Systolic Function (LVEF) less than 50% (2D-Echo Radionuclide Angiography [RNA] LV ventriculography) or increased left ventricular diastolic diameter (greater than 55 mm) on 2D-Echo
  • 2.4. Complex ventricular arrhythmias (multiform greater than 10/hour, couplets or non-sustained Ventricular Tachycardia [NSVT]) on 24 hour ambulatory ECG monitoring

排除标准

  • 1. New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart failure class IV or decompensated heart failure
  • 2. Evidence of concomitant Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) or other etiology of dilated cardiomyopathy
  • 3. Previous treatment with antitrypanosomal agents or an accepted indication for antiparasitic therapy (e.g. reactivation of Chagas infection due to immunosuppression by several diseases or treatment with steroids)
  • 4. Patients living in inadequate housing conditions that may predispose to t. cruzi re-infection will not be excluded; instead this condition will be appropriately documented
  • 5. Inability to comply with follow-up
  • 6. History of severe alcohol abuse within two years
