DR.VINOD.G.V. DEFINITION HCM is a disease state characterized by unexplained LV hypertrophy associated with nondilated ventricular chambers in the absence
DEFINITION HCM is a disease state characterized by unexplained
LV hypertrophy associated with nondilated ventricular chambers in
the absence of another cardiac or systemic disease that itself
would be capable of producing the magnitude of hypertrophy evident
in given patient.
Slide 3
HCM is a common genetic cardiovascular disease Prevalance
estimated to be 1:500
Slide 4
GENETICS Caused by autosomal dominant mutations in genes
encoding protein components of the sarcomere and its constituent
myofilament elements. 1400 mutations identified among at least 8
genes.

CMR - Poor Prognostic factors Markedly elevated LV mass index
(men > 91 g/m 2, women > 69 g/m 2 ) - sensitive(100%) Maximal
wall thickness of more than 30 mm specific (91%) for cardiac
deaths

Type 1:Anterior segment of septum(10%) Type 2:Both anterior and
posterior segment(20%) Type 3:Septum and anterolateral free
wall(52%) Type 4:Other regions including apical HCM (18%)

SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH Most commonly in adolescents and young
adults
Age 12 to 1821 y Every 1218 mo Age >1821 y At onset of
symptoms or at least every 5 y More frequent intervals are
appropriate in families with late-onset HCM.
Slide 73
Genotype-Positive/Phenotype-Negative Patients CLASS 1 Serial
ECG, TTE, and clinical assessment at periodic intervals 12 to 18
months in children and adolescents Every 5 years in adults based on
the patients age and change in clinical status
Slide 74
MEDICAL THERAPY Initial therapeutic approach to relieving
symtoms with obstructive HCM. Beta -Adrenergic blocking agents are
the initial drug of choice
Slide 75
Beta Blockers Advantages of beta blockers include 1. Decreased
heart rate response to exercise 2. Decreased outflow tract gradient
with exercise 3.Relief of angina by a decrease in myocardial oxygen
demand 4 Improvement in diastolic filling
Slide 76
Dosage should be titrated to symptom relief or to obtain a
resting heart rate of
Slide 77
Calcium Channel Blockers specifically verapamil and diltiazem
decrease inotropy and chronotropy also improve abnormal diastolic
relaxation by preventing calcium influx Verapamil -used most
frequently due to its minimal effect on afterload.
Slide 78
In contrast to beta blocking drugs an improvement in diastolic
filling occurred with verapamil. CCBs may improve angina to a
greater degree than beta blockers. verapamil - sustained
symptomatic improvement in
SEPTAL ABLATION NYHA class III-IV symptoms despite maximal
medical therapy Septal thickness >18mm Subaortic gradient
>50mmHg due to mitral septal contact Absence of papillary muscle
or mitral valve anomalies
Slide 90
Absence of significant coronary arterial disease Compatible
septal perforator branch arterial anatomy. Relative
contraindications to surgical myectomy(age,comorbidity)
Slide 91
Initial results reported successful short- term outcomes The
outflow tract gradient is reduced from a mean of 60 to 70 mm Hg
often to
5.All are indications of alcohol septal ablation except a.NYHA
class III-IV symptoms despite maximal medical therapy b.Septal
thickness >18mm c.Subaortic gradient >30mmHg d.Absence of
papillary muscle or mitral valve anomalies.
Slide 105
6.True regarding alcohol septal ablation except a.10ml of
absolute alcohol is injected b.Immediate reduction of LVOT gradient
c.Increased incidence of complete heart block d.Predisposes to
SCD
Slide 106
7.All are true regarding medical management of HCM except
a.Betablockers are the initial drug of choice b.CCBS cause better
angina control than betablockers c.Diltiazem can precipitate acute
pulmonary edema d.Combination of betablockers and CCBS more
effective than single drug
Slide 107
8.ECHO features of HCM all except a.Septal hypertrophy >15mm
b.Dagger shaped doppler spectrum c.SAM of anterior mitral valve.
d.Increased mitral annular velocity on DTI

9.All are true regarding athlets heart except a.Wall thickness
45mm c.Diastolic function is normal d.LVH does not regress on
deconditioning
