Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy And Atrial Fibrillation: A Change
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy was first recognized from pathologic studies in 1958 (1) and subsequently analyzed in detail from hemodynamic (2), echocardiographic (3) and electrophysiologic standpoints (4). It is characterized by a hypertrophied heart with a nondilated left ventricular chamber in the absence of any illness that induces an increased myocardial mass. It is frequently associated wit...
متن کاملManagement of Atrial Fibrillation in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Case Presentation: A 38-year-old man with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was referred for management of intermittent palpitations and exertional dyspnea with routine activities despite escalated β-blocker therapy. His initial examination was notable for a regular pulse at 72 bpm and harsh systolic murmur that increased with the Valsalva maneuver. A 12-lead electrocardiography revealed sinus ...
متن کاملCMR findings in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and atrial fibrillation
OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the relation between atrial fibrillation (AF) and the extent of myocardial scarring together with left ventricular (LV) and atrial parameters assessed by late gadolinium-enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). BACKGROUND AF is the most common arrhythmia in HCM. Myocardial scarring is also id...
متن کاملAssociation of elevated plasma B-type natriuretic peptide levels with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in patients with nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between the plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level and the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. METHODS Patients (n=97) were classified into chronic AF (CAF; n=14), paroxysmal AF (PAF; n=18) and normal sinus rhythm (NSR; n=65) groups. The plasma BNP values were analyzed with logar...
متن کاملPredictors of Atrial Fibrillation Risk in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic cardiovascular disease that predisposes individuals to the development of arrhythmias. The most common sustained arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation (AF). Compared with the general population, patients with HCM are more prone to the development of AF. To avoid embolic complications and the clinical deterioration caused by the development of AF in HCM...
