Alcohol Septal Ablation or Mavacamten for Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disease characterized by an increased left ventricular wall thickness in the absence of increased afterload conditions. In addition to diastolic dysfunction, obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract is common in HCM and has an important influence on symptoms and outcome. Over the last five decades

Mavacamten in Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction
Right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction is a rare complication of ventricular hypertrophy in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This study presents an unusual case of a patient with HCM with severe RVOT obstruction that was relieved successfully through the use of mavacamten.

Tale of three services: early UK experience with mavacamten treatment for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [PDF]
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterised by abnormal thickening of ventricular myocardium. Left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction occurs in up to 70% of patients, causing progressive symptoms, heart failure and mortality ...

Mavacamten maintenance dose determination
\(\bf Aims\) Mavacamten, the first approved myosin inhibitor for symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM), addresses hypercontractility and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. This study evaluates real-world experience with mavacamten, focusing on maintenance dose determination to optimise individual therapy and enhance
