Assessment of Wall Thickness in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
Assessment of wall thickness in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is of diagnostic and prognostic importance given its known association with sudden cardiac death. However, data regarding comparison of imaging modalities for this key measurement is lacking. This study seeks to compare assessment of maximum wall thickness between clinically indicated echocardiography (with and without contrast) and clinically indicated cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Clinically and echocardiographically defined hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
- Clinically indicated transthoracic echocardiography as part of the medical evaluation.
- No contradiction to administration of ultrasonic echocardiography contrast.
- Planned clinically indicated cardiac magnetic resonance imaging as part of medical evaluation.
- No contraindication to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (such as cochlear implants, central nervous system aneurysm clips and other implanted medical devices).
- Age 18 years and older.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Individuals < 18 years old.
- Insufficient image quality for determination of maximal wall thickness.
Eligibility last updated 5/24/22. Questions regarding updates should be directed to the study team contact.
