Overview

Atrial fibrillation is considered as a common complications of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Prevalence of atrial fibrillation among hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients has been estimated as 20% in a 9 year follow up period. However it's prevalence in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy older than 70 years old is estimated as high as 40%. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients with atrial fibrillation has a worse prognosis, compared to those without atrial fibrillation, even in when risk factors are corrected. Evidences of left atrial dysfunction based on echocardiography and electrocardiogram are associated to atrial fibrillation development in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients. Heart failure and mortality as a result of it, stroke and serious functional impairment are some of the consequences of concurrent atrial fibrillation and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The medical management of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy involves minimizing diastolic dysfunction, reducing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, optimizing heart failure management, maintaining sinus rhythm, rate control and anticoagulation in the presence of atrial fibrillation.

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (DO NOT EDIT)[13]

Class IIa
"1. Antiarrhythmic medications can be useful to prevent recurrent atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Amiodarone, or disopyramide combined with a beta blocker or nondihydropyridine calcium channel antagonists are reasonable therapies. (Level of Evidence: C)"
"2. Atrial fibrillation catheter ablation can be beneficial in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in whom a rhythm-control strategy is desired when antiarrhythmic drugs fail or are not tolerated. (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIb
"1. Sotalol, dofetilide, and dronedarone may be considered for a rhythm-control strategy in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). (Level of Evidence: C)"

2011 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy[14]

Management of Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Class I
"1. Anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists (i.e., warfarin, to an international normalized ratio of 2.0 to 3.0) is indicated in patients with paroxysmal, persistent, or chronic atrial fibrillation and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). (Anticoagulation with direct thrombin inhibitors (such as dabigatran) may represent another option to reduce the risk of thromboembolic events, but data for patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are not available)(Level of Evidence: C)"
"2. Ventricular rate control in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with atrial fibrillation is indicated for rapid ventricular rates and can require high doses of beta blockers and nondihydropyridine calcium channel blockers.(Level of Evidence: C)"
Class IIa
"1. Disopyramide (with a ventricular rate-controlling agents) and amiodarone are reasonable antiarrhythmic agents for atria fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) (Level of Evidence: B)"
"2. Radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation can be beneficial in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) who have refractory symptoms or who are unable to take antiarrhythmic agents (Level of Evidence: B)"
"3. Maze procedure with closure of left atrial appendage is reasonable in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) with a history of atrial fibrillation, either during septal myectomy or as an isolated procedure in selected patients. ([[ACC AHA guidelines clas]sification scheme#Level of Evidence|Level of Evidence: C]])"
Class IIb
"1. Sotalol, dofetilide, and dronedarone might be considered alternative antiarrhythmic agents in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), especially in those with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), but clinical experience is limited. (Level of Evidence: C)"

2011 ACCF/AHA/HRS Focused Updates Incorporated Into the ACC/AHA/ESC 2006 Guidelines for the Management of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation (DO NOT EDIT)[15]

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (DO NOT EDIT) [15]

Class I
"1. Oral anticoagulation (INR 2.0 to 3.0) is recommended in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who develop atrial fibrillation, as for other patients at high risk of thromboembolism. (Level of Evidence: B)"
Class IIa
"1. Antiarrhythmic agents can be useful to prevent recurrent atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Available data are insufficient to recommend one agent over another in this situation, but (a) disopyramide combined with a beta blocker or non dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist or (b) amiodarone alone is generally preferred.
