No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Up to one-third of patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 die suddenly mainly from arrhythmias. Sleep apnea is prevalent in myotonic dystrophy (DM1) patients. Among the serious complications from sleep apnea, the most alarming are arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Diagnosis of sleep apnea using simple tools in ambulatory cardiology practice may improve therapy of cardiac arrhythmias in patients with DM1
