Overview
A 12 lead EKG is strongly recommended at the time of the initial diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Common findings on an EKG in these patients include tall R waves, deep Q waves, inverted T waves, ST segment abnormalities and 'strain pattern' in the chest leads. The deep Q waves indicate septal hypertrophy and similarly deeply inverted T waves indicate apical hypertrophy.
Electrocardiogram
Large septal Q waves may be present reflective of the septal hypertrophy. In the Yamaguchi variant of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, there may be deeply inverted T waves in precordial leads V2-V6 and II, III, aVL (see example).
Shown below is an example of a variant of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with deeply inverted T waves in precordial leads V2-V6 and II, III, aVL.
Shown below is an example of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with abnormal ST segments, deeply flipped T waves, tall R apical waves, deep Q waves. "Strain pattern" can be observed in the precordial leads.
Shown below is an example of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with ST depression in the lateral leads, deeper S waves in the right precordial leads and tall R waves in the left precordial leads with T wave inversions indicating "strain pattern".
Yamagouchi
Yamaguchi syndrome or apical hypertrophy pseudoacute coronary syndrome might be observed in ECG. ECG findings might show left ventricular hypertrophy as well as diffuse T-wave inversions over the inferior and anterolateral leads
2011 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Genotype-Positive/Phenotype-Negative Patients (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Class I |
"1. In individuals with pathogenic mutations who do not express the HCM phenotype, it is recommended to perform serial electrocardiogram (ECG), transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE), and clinical assessment at periodic intervals (12 to 18 months in children and adolescents and about every 5 years in adults), based on the patient’s age and change in clinical status.[2][3][4][5] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
Electrocardiography (DO NOT EDIT)[1]
Class I |
"1. A 12-lead ECG is recommended in the initial evaluation of patients with HCM. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. Twenty-four–hour ambulatory (Holter) electrocardiographic monitoring is recommended in the initial evaluation of patients with HCM to detect ventricular tachycardia (VT) and identify patients who may be candidates for ICD therapy.[4][6][7][8] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
"3. Twenty-four–hour ambulatory (Holter) electrocardiographic monitoring or event recording is recommended in patients with HCM who develop palpitations or lightheadedness.[4][6][7] (Level of Evidence: B)" |
"4. A repeat ECG is recommended for patients with HCM when there is worsening of symptoms. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"5. A 12-lead ECG is recommended every 12 to 18 months as a component of the screening algorithm for adolescent first-degree relatives of patients with HCM who have no evidence of hypertrophy on echocardiography. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"6. A 12-lead ECG is recommended as a component of the screening algorithm for first-degree relatives of patients with HCM. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Class IIa |
"1. Twenty-four–hour ambulatory (Holter) electrocardiographic monitoring, repeated every 1 to 2 years, is reasonable in patients with HCM who have no previous evidence of VT to identify patients who may be candidates for ICD therapy.[8] (Level of Evidence: C)" |
"2. Annual 12-lead ECGs are reasonable in patients with known HCM who are clinically stable to evaluate for asymptomatic changes in conduction or rhythm (i.e., atrial fibrillation (AF)). (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Class IIb |
"1. Twenty-four–hour ambulatory (Holter) electrocardiographic monitoring might be considered in adults with HCM to assess for asymptomatic paroxysmal AF/atrial flutter. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
