Percutaneous Endocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation in Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Percutaneous Endocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation in the Treatment of Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: a Prospective, Multicenter, Single-arm Objective Performance Criteria Trial

This prospective, multicenter, single-arm objective performance criteria trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the Percutaneous Endocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation (PESA) procedure in the treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM). The primary objectives include investigating:

  1. the treatment efficacy and safety of PESA treatment in oHCM patients with either left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) or midventricular obstruction;
  2. the impact of PESA treatment on the functional capacity, quality of life and long-term prognosis of oHCM patients with either LVOTO or midventricular obstruction.

Change in Participant-reported Health-related Quality of Life as Assessed by the KCCQ Score
Time Frame: 6 months,9 months and 12 months
The Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ) is a patient reported outcome instrument with minimum score = 0 and maximum score = 100 where higher score indicates better health status. There are no units to the score. The instrument utilizes a recall period of 2 weeks over which patients describe the frequency and severity of their symptoms, their physical and social limitations, and how they perceive their heart failure symptoms to affect their quality of life. quality of life
