Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is mainly caused by family inheritance, gene mutation and other factors, patients can be treated by using drugs, surgical septal resection, alcohol septal ablation and other ways.
1. Use of drugs: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can cause dyspnea and chest pain due to obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract. Patients can take non-dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers such as verapamil and diltiazem to improve the obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract and relieve the symptoms. Beta-blockers such as propranolol can also be taken to improve ventricular relaxation and increase ventricular diastolic filling time to improve symptoms.
2. Surgical septal septectomy: Patients with severe symptoms who have not responded to medication can undergo surgical septal septal septectomy to improve their symptoms.
3. Alcohol septal ablation: injecting anhydrous ethanol into the ventricular septum will lead to localized necrosis, which can alleviate the left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in some patients, thus improving the symptoms of heart failure such as dyspnea.
It is recommended that patients seek medical attention as early as possible, actively cooperate with the doctor’s treatment, and strictly follow the doctor’s instructions for medication.
