A clinical score for predicting left ventricular reverse remodelling in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy

ConclusionsThe LVRR predicting score using five predictors including hypertension, no family history of DCM, symptom duration<90  days, LVEF<35%, and QRS duration<116  ms can stratify the LVRR rate in patients with DCM. The LVRR predicting score may be a useful clinical tool that can be used easily at any institution.
