Detecting and treating subclinical anthrathycline therapy related cardiac dysfunction in low income country
REFNo: HS220ES
The objective of this research is to describe the burden of subclinical ATRCD by applying international guideline on Uganda cancer patient and to evaluate the significance of treating subclinical ATRCD with carvedilol.
Specific objectives:
1. To determine the incidence of subclinical ATRCD among cancer patient who receives Anthracycline therapy.
2. To compare the changes of GLS value between hypertension and non hypertension cancer patient at the completion of the anthracycline therapy.
3. To determine the correlation of conventional ECHO parameters (MAPSE, S’) with GLS, and their ability to diagnose or rule out subclinical ATRCD.
4. To determine the correlation of oxidative stress with cardiac function(GLS value) in patients who receives Anthracycline therapy
5. To describe the cardioprotective effect of carvedilol in patients with subclinical ATRCD.
