Perfusion Imaging With Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography in HCM

NCT02560467 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Last updated 2019-06-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The objective of this study is to determine whether myocardial contrast echocardiography in patients with cardiomyopathy (HCM) can detect resting hypo-perfusion due to fibrosis or stress induced perfusion defects due to associated abnormalities in intramyocardial arteries and the microcirculation. A secondary aim will be to determine whether abnormalities in perfusion are associated with either severity of symptoms (chest pain and dyspnea), presence of arrhythmias, and regional function of the septum.

Echo and myocardial contrast echocardiography perfusion imaging

Myocardial blood flow will be assessed by myocardial contrast echo. Perfusion at rest and stress will be quantified and compared to patient sx, degree of dysfunction on echo strain imaging, and degree of fibrosis on magnetic resonance imaging (when available) that was ordered as part of routine clinical care. Myocardial contrast echocardiography will be performed by intravenous administration of ultrasound contrast agent (Definity or Lumason) using FDA-approved dose limits. Vasodilator stress during MCE imaging will be performed using regadenoson at FDA-approved doses.
