The whole blood selenium concentrations were measured in 14 consecutive cases of catheter-proven dilated cardiomyopathy. The mean range of selenium was 59 ng/mL (SD 14). Patients with coronary heart disease had a mean value of 44 ng/mL (9.7) and normal controls had 78 ng/mL (20.1). These results would not support the hypothesis that selenium deficiency is an important causative agent in dilated cardiomyopathy in New Zealand.
