Overview

Effective measures for the secondary prevention of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy include screening. Once HCM has been identified in a family, immediate testing of all family members will help to identify those at risk. Both imaging and genetic testing might be helpful. Athletes and military commanders (this in danger group barely discussed in the literature) are particularly in danger and it is recommended to undergo screening for HCM.

Secondary Prevention

Effective measures for the secondary prevention of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy include screening by means of:

  • Echocardiography
  • MRI
  • Genetic testing

Athletes and military commanders (this in danger group barely discussed in the literature) are particularly in danger and it is recommended to undergo screening for HCM.
