Insertable Cardiac Monitors in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (ElucidateHcm)

August 24, 2017 updated by: Peter Magnusson, Region Gävleborg

EvaLuation Using Cardiac Insertable Devices And TelephonE in Hypertrophic CardioMyopathy

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is associated with sudden cardiac death and an increased risk of atrial fibrillation and subsequent embolic event. An insertable cardiac monitor will provide data on cardiac rhythm over a period of 18 months. This will provide an extended monitoring far longer than 24-48 hours of Holter monitoring as is currently usual care. Therefore, detection of arrhythmias could be used in risk stratification and decision-making with regard to offer an implantable defibrillator and anticoagulants.
