| Popis: | Sudden cardiac death is a well-documented complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and additionally, failure to raise blood pressure (BP) during exercise has been associated with a poor outcome. The present study group comprised 58 patients with hypertrophic non-obstructive cardiomyopathy (HNCM) who were receiving β-blocker therapy. All patients underwent submaximal exercise radionuclide ventriculography (RNVG) to evaluate left ventricular (LV) function at both rest and peak exercise. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the increase in systolic BP during exercise (ie, group A |
