In last month's #ISHLTJournalWatch, #BhanuRamachandran reviews a study led by Milind Y. Desai on the use of #Mavacamten in patients with obstructive hypertrophic #cardiomyopathy ( #oHCM ). Can Mavacamten allow clinicians to defer or avoid SRT use in these patients?

Hi tthanks for replying. I'm still not on #Mavacamten I recently had an Echocardio to prepare for it. I will see the Cardiologist in a few weeks to talk about it. I am hesitant to take more drugs unless I have to so I want to ask if I'm really at the point where I need it. #HCM @bgrrl.bsky.social
