Syncope and risk of sudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND The prognostic significance of syncope has not been investigated systematically in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and treatment strategies have been based largely on intuition and experience. METHODS AND RESULTS We assessed the relationship between syncope and sudden death in 1511 consecutive patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Unexplained (n=153) or neurally mediated (n=52) s...
متن کاملSudden cardiac death risk in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
It is well recognized that sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an infrequent, unpredictable, but catastrophic complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). In population-based studies the overall SCD rate is 1% per year among patients with a clinical diagnosis of HCM. A crucial aspect of the management of patients with HCM is an assessment of each individual patient’s risk for SCD so that preven...
متن کاملRisk stratification and prevention of sudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Sudden unexpected death, often occurring in young, asymptomatic patients, is the most devastating facet of the natural history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and appears to be the consequence of primary ventricular tachyarrhythmias arising in an electrically unstable myocardial substrate characterized by disorganized cellular architecture, ischemia, cell death, and replacement scarring. Althou...
متن کاملSudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: identification of high risk patients.
OBJECTIVES We sought to identify patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) at high risk of sudden death (SD). BACKGROUND Relatively low mortality rates in HCM make conventional analysis of multiple clinical risk markers for SD problematic. This study used a referral center registry to investigate a smaller number of generally accepted noninvasive risk markers. METHODS We studied 368 p...
