- Right and left ventricle have normal chamber size/wall thickness and there may or may not be diastolic dysfunction (NORMAL)
- Then there is normal chamber size, increased wall thickness and diastolic dysfunction (HYPERTROPHIC)
- Then there is increased chamber size, decreased wall thickness and both diastolic and systolic dysfunction (DILATION)

^ Hypertension, aortic stenosis, inherited mutations

- Right and left ventricles have normal chamber size, wall thickness is normal and there may or may not be diastolic dysfunction
- Then there is chamber size increase, decreased wall thickness and diastolic and systolic dysfunction

^ Ischemia, inherited mutations, myocarditis, systemic disease

Which feature makes dynamic hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy significant?

The key features of HOCM include the asymmetric septal wall thickness (more than 15 mm) and systolic anterior motion of the anterior mitral valve leaflet. The posterior septal wall is usually much thicker than the anterior septal wall. The narrowing of the LVOT is often obvious.

What findings are common in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?

Signs and symptoms of HCM include:.

Chest pain, especially with physical exertion..

Shortness of breath, especially with physical exertion..

Fatigue..

Arrhythmias (abnormal heart rhythms).

Dizziness..

Lightheadedness..

Fainting (syncope).

Swelling in the ankles, feet, legs, abdomen..

Which finding on physical examination would be suggestive of a diagnosis of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy?

On physical examination, the presence of a harsh crescendo–decrescendo systolic murmur at the lower left sternal border, a mid–late systolic apical murmur or holosystolic apical murmur, and/or paradoxically split S2 should alert clinicians to the possibility of HCM.

Which best describes hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle becomes thickened (hypertrophied). The thickened heart muscle can make it harder for the heart to pump blood.
