Dilated cardiomyopathy is a disorder of the heart wherein the thinning of the left ventricle of the heart takes place. This leads to the heart not being able to pump blood efficiently. Some of the common symptoms of dilated cardiomyopathy are chest pain, swelling in feet and ankles, and shortness of breath. There are numerous reasons due to which a person might suffer from this disease, such as arrhythmia, hypertension, obesity and diabetes. Dilated cardiomyopathy can lead to severe complications, including heart failure, heart arrest and blood clots. It can be diagnosed through a chest X-ray, ECG, echocardiogram or blood tests. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the research on dilated cardiomyopathy. It will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
