Odesa National Medical University Department of family medicine and polyclinic therapy SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH Prepared by: assistant Amirova H. Yu.
BRUGADA SYNDROME Brugada syndrome is a rare, but potentially life- threatening heart rhythm disorder that is sometimes inherited. People with Brugada syndrome have an increased risk of having irregular heart rhythms beginning in the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles).
HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle becomes abnormally thick (hypertrophied). The thickened heart muscle can make it harder for the heart to pump blood.
VENTRICULAR ARRHYTHMIAS Ventricular arrhythmias are abnormal heart rhythms that make the lower chambers of your heart twitch instead of pump. This can limit or stop your heart from supplying blood to your body
ARRHYTHMOGENIC RIGHT VENTRICULAR DYSPLASIA (ARVD) Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia / cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C) is a rare familial disorder that may cause ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac death in young, apparently healthy individuals The clinical hallmark of the disease is ventricular arrhythmias, arising predominantly from the right ventricle.
