Preliminary questions [38272]
there is some evidence that infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.38274 the veteran has had infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder at some time.
38275 — the veteran's infiltration of the myocardium was due to an illness or injury which is identifiable and which is either amyloidosis, sarcoidosis, a primary or metastatic neoplasm involving the heart, or iron overload.
38277 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and VEA service for cardiomyopathy.
as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran had infiltration of the myocardium at the time of the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.38278 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and VEA service for the clinical onset of cardiomyopathy.
38280 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and operational service for the clinical onset of cardiomyopathy.
or
38281 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and eligible service for the clinical onset of cardiomyopathy.
or
as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran had infiltration of the myocardium at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.38279 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and VEA service for the clinical worsening of cardiomyopathy.
38282 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and operational service for the clinical worsening of cardiomyopathy.
or
38283 — the veteran has established the causal connection between infiltration of the myocardium due to a specified disorder and eligible service for the clinical worsening of cardiomyopathy.
Clinical onset and operational service [38280]
36005 — the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [38281]
36006 — the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [38282]
36005 — the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related to operational service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related.Clinical worsening and eligible service [38283]
36006 — the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related to eligible service.
the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the infiltration of the myocardium, is causally related.
