Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in the Spotlight: A Special Focus on Precision Diagnosis, Targeted Therapies & Risk Management
-
8m 22s
This comprehensive educational programme, led by guest editor Prof Clara Ines Saldarriaga Giraldo, bridges the gap between the latest guidelines and clinical practice in the diagnosis and management of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
Following the Special Collection in Cardiac Failure Review (CFR), hear more from the leading experts in these exclusive interviews for further insights on new advances in multimodality imaging, pharmacological treatments, the role of interventions (surgical septal ablation) and sudden death prevention for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Hear more on imaging insights with Prof Clara Saldarriaga and Dr Victoria Delgado in this exclusive peer-to-peer interview:
Learning Objectives
- To summarise current guideline recommendations on diagnosis and treatment of HCM.
- To recall current approval status of myosin inhibitors.
- To recall clinical benefit myosin inhibitors provided in Phase 3 and RW studies in specific patient populations.
- To select patients who are likely to benefit from myosin inhibitors.
Target Audience
- Cardiologists
- Heart Failure Specialists
- Associated Nurses/Nurse Practitioners
- HCPs in Training
- Allied Health Staff, engaged in delivering emerging best practices in HCM care
