Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate haemodynamics and geometrical parameters obtained during echocardiography of patients with various clinical types of autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD). 77 patients with verified diagnosis of ATD were surveyed: 73 (94.8%) female and 4 (5.2%) male. All ATD patients were divided into 3 groups depending on function of the thyroid. Decrease in concentration of thyroid hormones at SCH and CH leads to decrease of contractility of heart. Obtained data shows that SCH and CH increase the rate of development fo eccentric hypertrophies of myocardium (25.9 and 60%, respectively, р <0.04). Patients with SCH and CH are characterised by moderate changes of morphofunctional parameters of heart consisting of increase in size and dilation of cavities of the left auricle and thickness of the left myocardial wall (a relative hypertrophy).
