Cardiomyopathy‐Associated Chronic Heart Failure in Infants Aged <1 Year: A Prospective Observational Cohort Over 5 Years in Northern China
A significant number of infants with cardiomyopathy who survived >1 year were found to improve with medical therapies during the first year of diagnosis. Poorer outcomes were associated with decreased LVEF and increased heart size at diagnosis baseline, the presence of left bundle-branch block and use of β blockers. The Northern Chinese pediatric population may have a high proportion of left ventricular noncompaction.
