As timely diagnosis of patients with HCM may reduce or delay the need for invasive treatment, these treatment options are essential for cardiologists to understand. This PeerView activity covers what you need to know about diagnosing and managing HCM for optimal patient care. A patient case threads through each section and offers a window into real-world diagnostic and treatment challenges as our expert shares guidance and the latest evidence. By the end o
