Writing Committee Chair Steve R. Ommen, MD, FACC, FAHA and Vice Chair Carolyn Ho, MD, FAHA discuss the 2024 updates to the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) Guidelines. Following U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval of the first cardiac myosin inhibitor mavacamten for symptomatic obstructive HCM, the guideline now includes it as an option before more invasive therapies when first-line treatments like beta blockers or calcium channel blockers are not effective.
