How is Dilated Cardiomyopathy treated?

Medications
Medications are used for two reasons:
To improve cardiac function
To treat symptoms and prevent complications
To boost heart performance
In order to alleviate symptoms and avoid consequences,
Even if they don't have symptoms, most people benefit from
taking a beta-blocker plus an ACE inhibitor to control heart failure. Digoxin,
diuretics, and aldosterone inhibitors may be administered if symptoms appear
and/or worsen. As needed, further drugs will be added. If you have an
arrhythmia, for example, your doctor may prescribe medicine to help you control
your heart rate or prevent arrhythmia from occurring. Alternatively, blood
thinners may be used to avoid blood clots. Your doctor will talk to you about
the best medications for you.

Lifestyle Changes
Diet: You should
limit your salt (sodium) intake to 2,000 to 3,000 mg per day once you start
experiencing symptoms like shortness of breath or exhaustion. Even if your
symptoms seem to have subsided, stick to this low-sodium diet. The majority of
salt consumed comes from processed foods. In addition to removing the salt
shaker from the table and reading all food labels for sodium content and
serving size when cooking, keep track of your sodium intake by reading all food
labels for sodium content and serving size.
Exercise: Your
doctor will tell you whether or not you are able to exercise. Most
cardiomyopathy patients are recommended to engage in non-competitive aerobic
activity. It's possible that heavy weight lifting isn't a good idea.
Implantable Devices
Biventricular pacing (a pacemaker that senses and triggers
heartbeats in the right and left ventricles) improves mortality, decreases
symptoms, and increases exercise capacity or tolerance in certain individuals
with severe heart failure. This pacemaker will also help persons with heart
block or bradycardias (slow heart rates) maintain a healthy heart beat.
ICDs (Internal Cardioverter Defibrillators): People who are
at risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias or abrupt cardiac death
should consider getting an ICD. The heart rhythm is regularly monitored by the
ICD. When it senses an abnormally fast heartbeat, it sends energy (shock) to
the heart muscle, causing the heart to beat normally again.
Surgery
Valve dysfunction, damaged, thin heart muscle after a
cardiac attack, and congenital anomalies may all require surgery. In addition,
certain individuals may benefit from the implantation of a left ventricular
assist device. The patient must meet strict requirements and have advanced,
end-stage heart failure in order to undergo this surgery. Other surgical
alternatives for heart failure include a heart transplant.
