Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

"Talking With Patients About Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy" highlights research and recommendations about hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) to help guide discussions with patients and improve outcomes.

Overall, greater awareness of, and education about, HCM detection and guideline-directed care, as well as what is foremost on the minds of many of our patients, is needed.

Use this resource, which has been vetted by experts, at the point of care to help encourage HCM diagnosis and treatment, as well as to educate patients about HCM, the associated cardiovascular risks, and strong familial link.

Also, using the "Encouraging Shared Decision-Making in HCM" checklist will support treatment discussions with your patients and help engage them to participate in decisions related to their care.
