Abstract:
Fulminant myocarditis is one of the most common diseases causing sudden cardiac death in pediatrics and young adults.The pathophysiology of fulminant myocarditis involves both direct myocyte dysfunction and immune-mediated tissue injury,which result in severe damage in cardiac structure and func-tion.It always rapidly developed into cardiogenic shock in several hours.Despite the high mortality rate,if pa-tient response well to a series of progressive treatment,most of them would get complete resolution.Better understanding of the hemodynamic changes of fulminant myocarditis is the key point of rapid diagnosis and proper interventional treatment.In this article we made a summary introduction of those hemodynamic chan-ges in fulminant myocarditis.
