Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To identify left ventricular (LV) myocardial mechanics predictors of LV outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). METHODS: Thirty-nine adults with HCM and 21 controls underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance. The feature tracking (FT) analysis results of HCM patients with and without LVOTO and controls were compared. RESULTS: Global radial strain measured on the short-axis slice (GRS-SAX) (odds ratio [OR], 1.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.15; P < 0.01), global longitudinal strain measured on the long-axis slice (GLS-LAX) (OR, 1.81; 95% CI, 1.21-2.73; P < 0.01) and GRS measured on the long-axis slice (GRS-LAX) (OR, 1.07; 95% CI, 1.01-1.13; P = 0.02) were independent predictors of LVOTO. The combination of GRS-SAX plus GLS-LAX and GRS-LAX showed great discriminatory power for identifying LVOTO with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve value of 0.91 (95% CI: 0.81-1.00). CONCLUSIONS: In adult HCM patients, GRS-SAX, GLS-LAX, and GRS-LAX were independent predictors of LVOTO. The combination of GRS-SAX plus GLS-LAX and GRS-LAX showed great discriminatory power for identifying LVOTO.
