OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) levels and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).
METHODS: A referral HCM population with prospectively obtained hs-cTnT concentration from March 1, 2018, to April 23, 2020, was reviewed. Patients with end-stage renal disease or an abnormal hs-cTnT level not collected in an outpatient protocolled fashion were excluded. The hs-cTnT level was compared with demographic characteristics, comorbidities, conventional HCM-associated SCD risk factors, imaging, exercise testing, and prior cardiac events.
RESULTS: Of 112 included patients, 69 (62%) had an elevated hs-cTnT concentration. The level of hs-cTnT correlated with known risk factors for SCD, including nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (P=.049) and septal thickness (P=.02). When patients were stratified by having a normal vs an elevated hs-cTnT concentration, patients with elevated hs-cTnT concentration were more likely to have experienced an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator discharge for ventricular arrhythmia, ventricular arrhythmia with hemodynamic instability, or cardiac arrest (incidence rate ratio, 2.96; 95% CI, 1.11 to 10.2). When sex-specific hs-cTnT cutoffs were removed, this association was no longer present (incidence rate ratio, 1.50; 95% CI, 0.66 to 3.60).
CONCLUSION: In a protocolized, outpatient HCM population, hs-cTnT elevations were common and were associated with more arrhythmic expressivity of the HCM substrate as indicated by previous ventricular arrhythmias and appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shocks only when sex-specific hs-cTnT cutoffs were used. Further research should use different hs-cTnT reference values by sex to determine whether an elevated hs-cTnT value is an independent risk factor for SCD in patients with HCM.
