About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy focused on measuring Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Septal Myectomy, Transapical Beating-heart Septal Myectomy, Minimally Invasive, Midventricular obstruction and cavity obliteration

Eligibility Criteria

12 Years - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Patients who were diagnosed as apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with maximal apical wall thickness ≥ 15 mm. Patients with heart function of New York Heart Association ≥ class II. Patients with drug-refractory symptoms or intolerable to pharmaceutical therapies. Patients who was informed the nature of the clinical trial, consented to participate in all of the activities of the clinical trial, and signed the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: Patients who were pregnant. Patients who had concomitant diseases such as intrinsic valvular disease or coronary artery disease that needed open-chamber cardiac surgery. Patients who had severe heart failure with left ventricle ejection fraction < 40%. Patients whose estimated life expectancy < 12 months. Patient who were non-compliant. Patients under circumstances which were considered not suitable or prohibitive for participating the clinical trial at the discretion of the attending medical team and the researchers.

Experimental: Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Arm Description

Transapical beating-heart myectomy for the treatment of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

All-cause mortality
Death from any cause during the observation period.
Procedural success
Body surface area-indexed left ventricular end-diastolic volume increased by 10% compared with baseline as measured by echocardiography. A higher left ventricular end-diastolic volume indicates enlarged left ventricular chamber.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure
Left ventricular end-diastolic pressure measure by hemodynamic catheterization.
Left ventricular end-systolic volume
Left ventricular end-diastolic volume as measured by echocardiography and indexed by body surface area. A higher left ventricular end-systolic volume indicates enlarged left ventricular chamber.
Peak oxygen consumption
Peak oxygen consumption as measured by cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
Pulmonary artery wedge pressure
Pulmonary artery wedge pressure as measured by Swan-Ganz catheter.
Stroke volume
Stroke volume as measured by Swan-Ganz catheter.
Left ventricle mass
Left ventricle mass index (the ratio of left ventricle mass to body weight) as measured by cardiac magnetic resonance.
Cardiac diastolic function
The ratio between early mitral inflow velocity and mitral annular early diastolic velocity ( E/e') as measured by transthoracic echocardiography.
Left atria volume
The left atria volume as measured by echocardiography.
Ventricular wall thickness
Ventricular wall thickness as measured by echocardiography.
Device success
Successful accession, delivery, and retrieval of the resection device, successful resection of the ventricular myocardium, and free from conversion to midline thoracotomy during operation.
New York Heart Association class
New York Heart Association class, including grade I, grade II, grade III, grade IV. A higher grade means worse heart function.
6-minute walking test
6-minute walking test. A longer distance means better heart function.
Heart function-associated quality of life
Score of the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire. A higher score means better heart function.
Major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events
Procedure-related mortality and unplanned surgical procedures during hospitalization, permanent pacemaker implantation, iatrogenic valvular injury, imaging examination-validated cerebral complications.

Device
Intervention Name(s)
Transapical beating-heart septal myectomy
Intervention Description
We have invented a beating-heart myectomy device. Using this device, myectomy could be performed in the beating heart via a mini-thoractomy approach. The whole process of resection is monitored, navigated, and evaluated by real-time transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography. We are now conducting the study to explore the feasibility, the safety, and the efficacy of transapical beating-heart myectomy for the treatment of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
