Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Adulthood Associated With Low Cardiovascular Mortality With Contemporary Management Strategies

Maron et al. (Fri,) conducted a cohort in Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (n=1,000). Contemporary management strategies vs. General U.S. population was evaluated on HCM-related death. Contemporary management strategies in adult hypertrophic cardiomyopathy resulted in a low disease-related mortality rate of 0.53%/year, with 5- and 10-year survival rates of 98% and 94%.
