Sponsor's own description

DCM Support is recruiting patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure symptoms. The goal of this clinical trial is to examine whether treatment with a patient's own stem cells can improve their heart function and alleviate heart failure symptoms. * Stem cells will be collected from bone marrow in the patient's hip under local anaesthetic. * The stem cells will be infused into the arteries that supply blood to the heart under local anaesthetic. * A mini heart pump will be used to take the strain off the heart during the procedure. * The follow-up involves a phone call at 1 month and clinic visits at 3 and 12 months
