Understanding risk factors in left ventricular non-compaction

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to identify risk factors and predictors of adverse outcomes in patients with left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC). It will investigate genetic mutations that may influence the development of ventricular arrhythmias, assess the role of left ventricular myocardial strain in risk stratification, and explore determinants of left ventricular dysfunction. Participants' medical records will be reviewed annually over ten years to gather data on the progression of LVNC and associated risks.

Why it matters

Inclusion Criteria

Patients must meet the following criteria in order to be included in the study.

* Have a confirmed diagnosis of LVNC (between 2010-2020 for patients in the retrospective cohort only)
* Be over 18 years of age

Exclusion Criteria

Patients are ineligible to participate in this study if they do not meet one or more of the inclusion criterion or if they have any other cardiomyopathy aside from LVNC that is linked to a genetic mutation they carry.
