Keywords
Pediatric, Risk Prediction
Brief summary
This is a retrospective cohort study of pediatric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients using chart and registry review methodology. The studies objective is to develop and validate a sudden cardiac death (SCD) risk calculator that is age-appropriate for children with HCM that includes clinical and genetic factors.

Inclusion criteria
* phenotype-positive patients diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy * phenotype-negative, genotype positive patients considered at risk for developing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Exclusion criteria
* Neuromuscular, metabolic, syndromic (other than Noonan Syndrome and related RAS-opathies) or endocrine (including infants of diabetic mothers) causes of HCM * (Other treatable causes of left ventricular hypertrophy (systemic hypertension, anatomic defects causing left ventricular outflow tract obstruction e.g. aortic stenosis, subAS, subaortic membrane, coarctation)

Recruitment details
This was a multicenter retrospective observational cohort study of pediatric patients with clinically diagnosed childhood-onset HCM. The primary cohort included patients from 11 sites participating in the PRIMaCY study (Precision Medicine for Cardiomyopathy), an international registry of patients with pediatric HCM launched in 2017. These included 4 Canadian, 6 US, and 1 Australian site. For model validation, we used data from the Sarcomeric Human Cardiomyopathy Registry.
