Cardiovascular Evaluation of Obligate Hétérozygotes in Friedreich's Ataxia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 18 September 2015
Summary
A study of 17 parents (obligate hétérozygotes) of children with Friedreich's ataxia was carried out. In addition to medical histories and physical examinations, a standard 12 lead ECG tracing was obtained. In the age group below 50, there was no significant evidence of ischaemic or primary cardiomyopathy. Older subjects had more frequent risk factors for arteriosclerotic heart disease.
