Abstract
Pain, itching, discolouration, and fatigue, all are calls for help from our bodies. Our bodies let us know that we have a threat inside by exhibiting symptoms. Imagine if the body skips this. What will happen? We will never know the disease progressing into a fatal stage, especially when a disease is slow progressing. The body adapts or compensates for the loss of function till it is unable to manage the loss anymore. And the heart is an organ we cannot afford to be in the dark about its state, but we are going to tell you about one such disease which can cost a person's life even before they know they have a disease inside them!
An introduction to Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC)
A condition that damages the cardiac muscles (Myocardium). The myocardium gradually deteriorates over time, resulting in an irregular heartbeat (Arrhythmia). Due to its slow progressing nature, even when the damage is fatal, symptoms may not be exhibited and the risk is that the person will die suddenly with no warning signals.
Symptoms
ARVC is asymptomatic in the early stages which put the person at risk of sudden death, especially during strenuous exercises. If symptoms are shown, they mostly are palpitation, light-headedness and fatigue.
ARVC can cause shortness of breath and abnormal swelling in the legs or abdomen in the long term. Strenuous exercise puts pressure on the fragile bond between heat muscles and the breakdown process is accelerated. If the myocardium becomes severely damaged, it can lead to heart failure.
Cause
Error in genes that instruct the formation of desmosomes (a factor that binds the myocardium) cause the links between muscle fibres to be fragile leading to their detachment from each other and cell death.
Diagnosis
- Medical history
- physical exam
- Tests like echocardiogram, electrophysiologic testing, Holter monitor, cardiac MRI, and/or cardiac CT scan
Abnormal function of the right ventricle, Fatty or fibrous-fatty infiltration of the right ventricle myocardium, Abnormal ECG, Arrhythmias especially with exercise, Family history of ARVC are some of the sure signs of this diagnosis.
Treatment
The treatment options are symptomatic and supportive as a definite cure is not yet found. Antiarrhythmic drug therapy is widely used, if this option fails, then the patient is treated with radiofrequency ablation. The risk of sudden death is prevented by an implanted defibrillator (ICD). Patients are advised about managing strenuous activities like sports and exercise.
ARVC and Ayurveda
Hridroga is a major chapter in classics. The heart is told as one of the Trimarmas. In the case of an ARVC, the myocardium is affected which is considered to be derived from mamsa dhatu (muscle tissue) and can be treated in terms of dhatu kshaya (depletion of tissues), mamsa dhatu dhusti (vitiated muscle tissues) and hridroga ( heart disease).
A hereditary condition cannot be totally cured but through Ayurveda, you can effectively manage it. The treatment focuses not only on improving the person's lifespan but also on providing the best possible quality of life. And for this, you should be in the best hands!
