Objective:Todiscuss and evaluate the clinical diagnosis and effective methods of Endocardial fibroelastosis(EFE)in children. Methods:To detect the change of the heart structure and function during 34 children with EFE by using X-ray
ECG
echocardiography
including measuring the size of the atrio-ventricular heart
endocardial thickness and the parameter about heart function.Results: Children with EFE have electrocardiographic abnormality
ventricular endometrial obviously thickening and left ventricular systolic function decreased obviously. Conclusion:The heart in EFE group has X-ray
electrocardiographic abnormality and characteristic performance of the echocardiography. The application of X-ray
ECG and ultrasound combined is more reliable in the diagnosis of EFE. But echocardiography is more valuable to determine the prognosis of children with EFE.
