Mixed Dilated Cardiomyopathy Explanation: There are many causes of cardiomyopathy that can be categorized in several ways. One method of defining cardiomyopathy is based on the official definition by the American Heart Association (AHA). The definition divides heart disease into 1.) primary cardiomyopathies, those that usually affect the heart alone (primary) and 2.) secondary cardiomyopathies, those that are a result of an underlying condition affecting many areas of the body. The primary cardiomyopathies are further divided into inherited (genetic) diseases, those that are acquired, and those that are a combination of both. Primary cardiomyopathy Genetic *hypertrophic cardiomyopathy *Ion conduction abnormalities -prolonged QT syndrome -Brugada syndrome Mixed *dilated cardiomyopathy *restrictive cardiomyopathy Acquired *inflammatory myocarditis *peripartum *physically and physiologically stress induced (tako-tsubo syndrome or "broken heart syndrome") http://www.fisterra.com/guias-clinicas/definicion-clasificac... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day4 hrs (2016-05-26 21:27:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here is another thread from Wordreference about the term "Cardiopatía Mixta" http://forum.wordreference.com/threads/cardiopatía-mixta.107...

mixed cardiomyopathy, dilated stage Explanation: Cardiomyopathies can be primary or secondary. Secondary cardiomyopathies arise from uncontrolled hypertension, coronary artery disease, alcohol abuse, to name a few causes. A mixed cardiomyopathy results from 2 or more primary or secondary causes (e.g., muscular dystrophy and coronary artery disease). The final stage of many cardiomyopathies involves dilation and thinning of the heart muscle shortly before electromechanical failure |
