Table 2. Left ventricular (LV) wall thickness in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients with and without clinical ventricular arrhythmia (VA).
Patients without VA, n = 13 | Patients with VA, n = 13 | p value | |
---|---|---|---|
Wall thickness (mean ± standard deviation [SD]) | |||
Septum, mm | 11.3 ± 8.4 | 13.1 ± 9.2 | 0.61 |
Anterior, mm | 11.3 ± 7.4 | 10.7 ± 7.3 | 0.84 |
Posterior, mm | 11.1 ± 7.2 | 11.3 ± 7.3 | 0.94 |
Apex, mm | 7.9 ± 5.3 | 7.2 ± 4.8 | 0.73 |
p values were calculated using Student’s t-test (p ≤ 0.05 considered statistically significant).
