What is hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)?HCM is a disease that causes heart muscle cells to become large. As the cells get larger, they cause the walls of your ventricles to become thick and stiff. The ventricles are the 2 lower chambers of your heart. They pump blood to your lungs and...
Supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, particularly nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, and ventricular premature beats are a common finding in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Several investigations have demonstrated that nonsustained ventricular tachycardia on Holter monitoring is associated with ...

What is restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM)?RCM is a disease of your heart muscle. RCM occurs when the lower chambers of your heart (ventricles) become stiff or weak. Ventricles pump blood to your lungs and the rest of your body. When the ventricles are stiff or weak, your heart cannot fill...
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a serious disease that affects the muscles of the heart. This leads to the thickening of the heart chambers (particularly the ventricles), stiffness of the left ventricles, and problems with the mitral valve(the valve between the left atriumand left ventricle). There...
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.This is a congenital heart defect that can cause the heart muscles of your cat to thicken abnormally, weakening their heart and eventually leading to heart failure. Amyloidosis.In this condition, amyloid protein deposits build up in your pet's organs, such as the liver...
What is arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy?Arrhythmogenic CardiomyopathyBeta-blockers are effective medications to manage arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy by controlling the heart rhythms. Thus, implantable loop recorders are applied to monitor the patients who manifest symptoms of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy....
