Abstract:
:Despite great advances in the pathophysiology and etiology of myocarditis, the clinical diagnosis of myocarditis in daily clinical practise remains challenging. Often the diagnosis was not clear because of the heterogeneity of clinical symptoms and the lack of guidelines for adequate diagnostic requirements and consecutive treatment options. The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Working Group on Myocardial and Pericardial Diseases established a working group of experts to improve the diagnosis and management of myocarditis and to provide a common consensus statement as a reference for future registries and controlled trials. The goal was to bridge the gap between clinical- and tissue-based diagnosis by formulating a concept concerning essential diagnostics and treatment of these patients that would be accepted across Europe. Only in this manner is it possible to establish a basis for national and international registries and double-blind randomized treatment trials for the etiologically differentiated treatment of myocarditis, which appear promising due to numerous studies in recent years. In this paper, two members from the expert working group summarize the most important aspects of this position paper on the etiology, diagnosis, management, and treatment of myocarditis, which were published in the July 2013 issue of European Heart Joumal.
