    Abstract:
    A possible connection between M-mode echocardiographs and the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias was investigated in a group of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. No single echocardiographic parameter could identify the patients with serious ventricular arrhythmias. Multivaried discriminatory analysis revealed the extent of the septal excursion, the telediastolic thickness of the interventricular septum, the E-F incline and the dimension of the left atrium as the most significant echocardiographic features identifying patients with serious ventricular arrhythmias.
