Risk of Arrhythmias in MYotonic Dystrophy: trial design of the RAMYD study

Abstract

The available evidence supports the hypothesis that both bradyarrhythmias and tachyarrhythmias may cause sudden death in DM1, but the course of cardiac disease in DM1 is still unclear. We expect that this large, prospective, multicenter study will provide evidence to improve diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in DM1.
