Key result
Intraoperative TEE remains the standard of care for assessing HOCM patients undergoing surgical septal myectomy.
Why the study?
Changing intraoperative hemodynamics during surgical septal myectomy present unique management challenges to decrease left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Supports TEE in HOCM myectomy; leaves open randomized confirmation.
Intraoperative TEE and tailored anesthetic management are essential to optimize hemodynamics and guide surgical septal myectomy in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
Garijo et al. (2021) conducted a review in Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography and anesthetic management was evaluated. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography is the standard of care for assessing patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy undergoing surgical septal myectomy.
