Functional Capacity and Quality of Life Following Septal Myectomy in Patients With HCM

Completed
Conditions
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Registration Number
NCT03092843
Lead Sponsor
The Cleveland Clinic
Brief Summary

Investigators aim to assess changes in exercise capacity and quality of life after septal myectomy in patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Detailed Description

The objective of this study is to examine change in quality of life and functional capacity as respectively measured by, Quality of Life Questionnaires and six-minute walk test distance, following septal myectomy in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, as compared to prior to surgery.
