Join host Elizabeth S DeWitt, MD, CEPS-P, and episode guests Cheyenne Beach, MD, FHRS, CEPS-P, and Robert Przybylski, MD as they discuss Sudden cardiac death is the leading cause of mortality in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Two risk scores—HCM Risk-Kids and PRIMaCY—have been developed to estimate 5-year risk, but their performance in an independent cohort showed limitations. Both tools tended to overestimate risk and showed imperfect ability to distinguish between low- and high-risk patients. However, their predictive accuracy significantly improved when risk assessments were repeated over time during follow-up.
