Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) Audit

The aim of this audit is to understand more about everyone in Scotland who has a diagnosis of Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

In May each year, a data collection spreadsheet is sent to each ICC centre requesting information on patients with HCM who have been referred to their service in the previous year. The information collected is:

  • CHI
  • Health Board of Residence
  • ICC Centre where patient is being treated
  • Genotype
  • Phenotype
  • Proband
  • Clinical Diagnosis Date
  • Genetic Test Date

The data should be returned by the end of September.
