“…There are in fact many acute haemodynamic studies which have purported to show the reduction in preload and afterload produced by sublingual nifedipine (Matsui et al, 1979;Matsumoto et al, 1980;Elkayam et al, 1985). The results ofthese studies must be considered encouraging but most cannot be considered adequate, controlled clinical trials.…”

“…Isolated RV cardiomyopathy is a very rare disease and only few cases have been reported in literature. 1 2 Most of the cases that have been reported in literature are secondary to causes like Ebstein's anomaly, arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), and familial RV cardiomyopathy. 3 Isolated cases have been reported in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, systemic sclerosis, autoimmune hypothyroidism, and isolated RV noncompaction cardiomyopathy.…”

Idiopathic Isolated Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: A Rare Case Report

Idiopathic isolated right ventricular cardiomyopathy is an extremely rare cause of right ventricular failure. Here, we report a case of 65-year-old male presented with chief complaints of dyspnea, fatigue, and bilateral pedal edema for the last 6 months. On clinical evaluation, grade II/III pansystolic murmur was present in left parasternal area. Investigations and imaging revealed dilated right atrium and ventricle with normal pulmonary artery pressure without any etiology. Magnetic resonance imaging ruled out other common causes of right ventricular cardiomyopathy; thus, the patient was diagnosed as a case of idiopathic isolated right ventricular cardiomyopathy that is a diagnosis of exclusion.

Summary:We present 14 patients with dilatative cardiomyopathy, proven by hemodynamic and angiographic assessment who received in a single-blind, randomized study, equipotent doses of the three calcium blockers: verapamil (0.1 mg/kg i.v., followed by an infusion of 0.01 mg/kg/min), nifedipin (20 mg sublingually), or diltiazem (0.2 mg/kg i.v., followed by infusion of 0.02 mg/kg/min). Before and after treatment in 8 patients systolic time intervals were recorded with an AVLMyocard-Check (Q-S,, pre-ejection period, left ventricular ejection time, and pre-ejection period/left ventricular ejection time) and end-systolic and end-diastolic diameter, fractional shortening, and circumferential fiber shortening velocity were measured by M-mode echocardiography. In another 6 patients radionuclide ventriculography was performed before and after each treatment (ejection fraction, cardiac index). PEP/LVET increased slightly after verapamil (+ 15%) and decreased after nifedipin (-5%) and diltiazem (-3%), the changes being not significant. Fractional shortening and circumferential fiber shortening velocity however, decreased after verapamil (-36, resp. -15%) and increased after nifedipin (+14%, resp. +25%) and after
