Summary
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common, autosomal dominant cardiac disease with heterogeneity of expression. Although predominantly an obstructive lesion, it is also characterized by dysrhythmias, diastolic dysfunction, and subendocardial ischemia. Knowledge of the pathophysiology of the disease is imperative in order to provide safe anesthetic care. A comprehensive preoperative evaluation is important in identifying high-risk patients with more malignant forms of the disease. This chapter reviews the abnormalities associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In addition, strategies to maintain normal sinus rhythm and blood pressure and to prevent catecholamine surges are discussed with specific reference to anesthetic agents and their effects in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
