Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: We want to quantify the effect of metoprololsuccinat on myocardial function, hemodynamics and symptoms in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.;Secondary Objective: not applicable;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the reduction in Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure (PCWP).<br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The randomization codes will be unblinded when 27 patients with HOCM have finished full trial participation, after this the endpoint will be evaluated. Final endpoint evaluation is estimatede to 18-24 months after the first patient have been enrolled.<br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): The secondary endpoint is the increase in oxygen consumption, coronary flow reserve and mechanical efficiency and the reduction in interventriculare pressure gradients during exercise, NT-proBNP, heart failure symptoms and improvement of lifequality.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The randomization codes will be unblinded when 27 patients with HOCM have finished full trial participation, after this the endpoints will be evaluated. Final endpoint evaluation is estimatede to 18-24 months after the first patient have been enrolled.
