  • Overview

    Three experts on HCM discuss the difficulty in making the diagnosis of HCM as it encompasses a range of diseases and how testing can help. Furthermore, they present novel potential targets for intervention and trial data of previous trials with cardiac myosin inhibitors and what the future holds on this topic.

  • Program Highlights

    This educational program consists of 3 presentations on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.  

    What are the challenges in making the right diagnosis? - Perry Elliott, MD, PhD  – London, UK 

    • “HCM is not a single disorder, it is not even a diagnosis. It is a description that encompasses a range of diseases”, says Perry Elliott.  

    Understanding the etiology of HCM and pathways for intervention - Roberto Barriales Villa, MD, PhD - A Coruña, Spain 

    • Roberto Barriales-Villa explains the etiologies and pathophysiology of HCM and how this understanding has resulted in potential targets for intervention.  

    The Clinical Challenge of Managing a Patient with HCM - Iacopo Olivotto, MD – Florence, Italy 

    • Iacopo Olivotto presents an overview of stage-specific therapies for HCM and focuses on myosin inhibitors for the treatment of obstructive HCM.

  • Provider(s)/Educational Partner(s)

    Today’s healthcare environment is constantly evolving and advances of medical science occur at an accelerating pace. CME/CE plays an important role in the clinical environment and is an essential element of physician training, learning, and improvement, thereby importantly contributing to optimal patient care. Since 2000, MEDCON’s mission is to deliver high quality within the world of medical education by creating forums like PACE-CME, organizing live meetings, and providing online education.  We aim to stimulate the review, exchange, and assimilation of key scientific findings to improve patients’ health, to raise awareness of new science underlying various disease states, and to accelerate the translation of this information into clinical practice.
