- Brief Summary
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a commonly undiagnosed and potentially fatal disease. Contemporary studies on this condition often underrepresent the female gender and diverse patient populations. This registry retrospectively evaluated patients referred for 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) between 2014 and 2023 at Montefiore-Einstein in the Bronx. The patient population is racially and ethnically diverse and with a high proportion of females. Demographic, clinical (e.g. comorbidities), laboratory, echocardiographic, hospitalization, and mortality data were collected for each patient.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method ATTR-CM Diagnosis During the index PYP scan within the study time frame parameters of the retrospective review (between 2014 and 2023) The number of patients who underwent a PYP SPECT scan diagnostic of ATTR-CM will be assessed and reported
Mortality Within the study time frame parameters of the retrospective review (between 2014 and 2023) The number of patients who died from all-cause mortality will be tabulated and reported
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Heart failure hospitalizations Within the study time frame parameters of the retrospective review (between 2014 and 2023) The number of patients admitted to the hospital with a primary diagnosis of heart failure will be tabulated and reported
Total Hospitalizations Within the study time frame parameters of the retrospective review (between 2014 and 2023) The number of patients admitted to the hospital with any diagnosis will be tabulated and reported
