Metabolic Cardiomyopathy of Childhood

  • Chapter
Topics in Pediatrics

Abstract

The cardiomyopathies are a group of disorders characterized by an intrinsic decrease in myocardial contractility. As long as stroke volume is maintained, congestive heart failure does not occur. However, when stroke volume falls, congestive heart failure ensues.1,2
