Mechano-energetic efficiency in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with and without sarcomeric mutations

Abstract: Background Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is mainly caused by sarcomeric mutations. In about 40% of cases the causal mutation is unknown. Myocardial mechano-energetic efficiency per unit of left ventricular (LV) mass (MEEi) is an echocardiographic parameter of LV pump performance. Sarcomeric mutations may affect energy efficiency. Purpose We investigated the effects of the presence of sarcomeric mutations on MEEi in patien… Show more
