  1. 1. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in Northern Sweden : with special emphasis on molecular genetics

    Författare :Stellan Mörner; Åke Hjalmarson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; genetics; autonomic nervous system; familial amyloid polyneuropathy; echocardiography; Epidemiology; epidemiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a heterogeneous, often familial disease, characterized by cardiac hypertrophy, predominantly affecting the interventricular septum. To date, no study has systematically analysed the genetic and phenotypic aspects of the disease in a Swedish population. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Early Cardiovascular Changes of Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in the Young

    Sammanfattning : Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited heart disease, transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion, i.e. 50% risk for transmission of the disease-causing mutation to each child of the affected family. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Screening for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Asymptomatic Children and Adolescents. Psychosocial consequences and impact on quality of life and physical activity

    Författare :Ewa-Lena Bratt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Adolescents; Beta-blocker therapy; children; exercise performance; family screening; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; parents experiences; psychosocial consequences; quality of life; transition;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to describe the consequences of being diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) while being asymptomatic, taking into consideration psychosocial effects and medical aspects of diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Quality of life (QoL) was measured according to Lindström before the diagnosis, and after two years, comparing with healthy controls. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Atrioventricular synchronous pacing in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy

    Författare :Fredrik Gadler; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HOCM; pacing; LVOTobstruction; quality of life;

    Sammanfattning : The study addresses major issues of cardiac pacing in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). The influence of ventricular pacing site and atrioventricular (AV)-delay on left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) gradient. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Factors influencing outcome in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Effects of pharmacotherapy, pacing and surgical myectomy

    Författare :Davood Javidgonbadi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy; myectomy; pacing; beta-blocker; survival; sex; re-intervention rate;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Most studies on risk factors for disease-related mortality in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have emanated from specialized tertiary centres which are subject to possible referral bias. About one quarter of HCM-patients have outflow obstruction in the left ventricle, hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). LÄS MER
