Describes the conceptual framework of 'cardiomyopathy of overload' where progressive ventricular dilation and increased wall stress lead to further deterioration of ventricular function.
William H. Barry (1998) conducted a review in Cardiomyopathy of overload / Ventricular dysfunction. Chronic pressure or volume overload was evaluated. Chronic pressure or volume overload leads to a progressive sequence of hypertrophy, ventricular dilation, and increased wall stress, resulting in progressive ventricular dysfunction.
