Journal ArticleDOI

Magnitude of left ventricular hypertrophy and risk of sudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the magnitude of hypertrophy is directly related to the risk of sudden death and is a strong and independent predictor of prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Syncope and risk of sudden death in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: In the present large cohort of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, unexplained syncope was a risk factor for sudden death and was maintained throughout all age groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The prognostic importance of left ventricular outflow obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy varies in relation to the severity of symptoms

TL;DR: In this article, the prognostic importance of left ventricular (LV) outflow obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is influenced by other predictors of morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk associated with pregnancy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: Maternal mortality is increased in patients with HCM compared with the general population, however, absolute maternal mortality is low and appears to be principally confined to women at a particularly high risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation of extreme left ventricular hypertrophy to age in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: The accumulated evidence strongly suggests that many patients with HC who have extreme LV hypertrophy may be candidates for potentially life-saving intervention with the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.
